Custom testing process

The Qualoo network will be major infrastructure asset, offering fixed and mobile test points, that not only will span the entire globe but will also serve multiple use cases far beyond that of the initial goal of securing our digital online experience. Our vision is that 3rd parties can leverage this global asset to derive their own location-based testing , analytics or distributed infrastructure needs.

One of the initial implementations of this will be the ability to conduct custom tests. This will be initially a customable option of Qualoo's existing tests but will eventually be extended to a similar function to a virtual machine where 3rd parties can write their own programs to conduct tests or analyze data.

This service can be particularly beneficial to clients who deliver services over the internet , examples of this would be e-commerce web provides or Over-The-Top (OTT) video or cloud service providers, who can not only test their own own service quality of service alongside general internet performance from each endpoint, but also competitor services. This will help organizations understand the impact 3rd party network and internet service providers have on their own service delivery to customers, but also help optimize their own network , expand strategically for maximum benefit to users and also better keep customers informed of intermittent issues which may impact user experience.

The process for custom testing is similar to that of standard testing:

1. Communication via API: Prior to a custom test, the Qualoo platform communicates with selected Test Nodes via the Qualoo API. This ensures the coordination of test timing and the submission of results.

2. Test Slot Allocation: For each custom test, a specific number of test slots are allocated. End users will have the option to opt-in to perform custom test jobs and increase their earnings potential. Test Nodes are selected to participate based on factors such as the user's service provider, location, quality of past submissions, and other metadata like the quality of the user's mobile signal (for Mobile Test Nodes).

Results from custom test will be available to users in a number of ways from pre-built custom broadcast reports, alerts, dashboards or raw data access via API. Custom testing requires a premium subscription package or additional credits which can be purchased in fiat or QXT.

By offering this custom testing service, Qualoo allows clients to gain insights that are specifically relevant to their operations and that can help them improve their services based on real-world user experience data.
