The Video Solution Pack includes an ingest/purge load test that is disabled and unusable by default. This particular solution pack was chosen for load testing due to the resource-heavy process of creating video derivatives and ingesting several potentially-massive files. To enable and use it:

  1. Make sure that the Testing module is enabled and that all prerequisites for derivative creation are satisfied for the Video Solution Pack.
  2. Edit the islandora_video.info file in this folder, removing the ; and whitespace before the line files[] = tests/islandora_video_load_test.test
  3. Create a folder in the tests/fixtures/ called load, and place as many videos in that folder as you would like to ingest. These files all must fit within the size specified by your php.ini file's maximum post size, and they must have a file extension supported by the Video Solution Pack, otherwise they will not be picked up by the load test.
  4. Clear the Drupal cache.

The video load test should now be available to use by navigating to http://path.to.your.site/admin/config/development/testing, checking 'Video Load Test' in the Islandora Video section, and then clicking 'Run tests'. The test will compare the original file to the file ingested into Fedora to see if they match.

NOTE: THIS WILL NOT WORK ON OPERATING SYSTEMS THAT DO NOT SUPPORT THE PHP GLOB_BRACE FLAG (E.G. SOLARIS).
