[James Inman]

Here is a link to a list of tools we use to perform stress,system, and
integration testing on JFS and EVMS, among other things.  We have used
these tools to test every JFS build that has dropped for the past 1.5
years.  I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about our tools
and methods.

What sort of tools _have_ been used to test JFS to date? and - what
version(s)
have been tested?
