How to mimic SMPP connection

Question

Hi, I have a situation. My application is sending multiple SMSes to end client this number varies from 50000 to 100000 SMSes at any point of time. To achieve this functionality i am using Kannel as sms sender interface.

So My solution is complete. But only in development environment! Before going to be in production I supposed to do a testing of this solution environment.

Is there any suggestion to created a testing environment?

To give more input to my environment; kannel is using an smpp connection to deliver messages to end client. So, I think i need to mimic some smpp server for kannel.

Answer 1

SMPPSIM from www.seleniumsoftware.com

Also try SCTT and Logica SMSCSim

Answer 2

If you're happy setting up a Java envrionment, Logica have an open-source simulator application that works quite well.

I've used it to push through quite a lot (in the order of several million) sms in test, so it's quite robust. I've also got a version compiled using .Net (J#) that /seems/ to work OK; give me a shout if you want to try that out.
