  1. PONetwork Throughput Speed Test

    <p>I'm planning on building a network throughput speed test (speed test) that will eventually be embedded in a website for random people to test their internet connection speed. The test will not only test their speed, but also trigger a test on the server to test the server uplink speed at the same time (to display as a comparison at that moment in time). </p> <p>I'm very comfortable in Java - but an applet seems to be a poor choice in 2013.</p> <p>The client is specifying they would like it in either Java (and applet) or Flash (oh god... ). I have no Flash experience, but once you know to program, you know to program... so it would just require learning the Flash toolchain/processes and syntax (hoping this isn't too crazy).</p> <p>However, I feel Flash is a poor choice as well (it's already being killed off by Adobe and it seems futile to invest so much effort to learn a platform that will go away (relatively) sometime in the near future).</p> <p>As the domain expert, I am free to make recommendations based on what I feel is not only viable, but makes sense. Javascript comes to mind here, but I have little Javascript experience too (so in same boat of having to learn it). I think Javascript's barrier to entry is much lower though since it's all embedded in HTML pages and I know HTML fairly well.</p> <p>Anyways, please make recommendations for such a project (platform-wise) and if possible point me in some direction of source code or examples of other speed tests that I can review and learn from (i tried searching but all i get back is functioning speed tests like speedtest.com etc, not source or theory, or design patters behind them).</p>
