Implementation of a mock server for discovery applications

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• receiving, as part of a scale test, a plurality of client requests from a mock client on a discovery server;
• determine, from a mock response dataset, a plurality of responses corresponding to the plurality of client requests;
• and
• transmit the plurality of responses to the mock client, wherein the discovery server is configured to:
• monitor a set of scale test parameters associated with reception of the plurality of client requests by a mock server and transmission of the plurality of responses to the mock client;
• and
• determine a performance metric associated with the scale test based on the set of scale test parameters, and wherein the set of scale test parameters include one or more of:
• response times associated with the transmission of the plurality of responses, a throughput associated with a number of the plurality of client requests processed in a given amount of time, a processor usage associated with the mock server to respond to the plurality of client requests, a memory usage associated with the mock server to respond to the plurality of client requests, or a network usage associated with reception of the plurality of client requests and transmission of the plurality of responses.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a computing system, causes the computing system to execute operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving, as part of a scale test, a plurality of client requests from a mock client on a discovery server;
• determine, from a mock response dataset, a plurality of responses corresponding to the plurality of client requests;
• and
• transmit the plurality of responses to the mock client, wherein the discovery server is configured to:
• monitor a set of scale test parameters associated with reception of the plurality of client requests by a mock server and transmission of the plurality of responses to the mock client;
• and
• determine a performance metric associated with the scale test based on the set of scale test parameters, and wherein the set of scale test parameters include one or more of:
• response times associated with the transmission of the plurality of responses, a throughput associated with a number of the plurality of client requests processed in a given amount of time, a processor usage associated with the mock server to respond to the plurality of client requests, a memory usage associated with the mock server to respond to the plurality of client requests, or a network usage associated with reception of the plurality of client requests and transmission of the plurality of responses.

• duplicating a record of the mock response dataset to form a duplicated record;
• generating a random value of an attribute of the duplicated record;
• updating the duplicated record based on the random value;
• and updating the mock response dataset to include the duplicated record.
