What type of server does ApTest Manager run on?
ApTest Manager can be hosted on any modern UNIX, Linux, MacOS X, or Windows machine. This server needs to have a web server running on it (Apache, Microsoft IIS), and needs a Perl interpreter (Perl is included with UNIX-based systems, and there is a free one readily available for Windows). With regard to things like memory, processor size, and disk space – it is very hard to estimate this. The software itself does not require much in any of these areas. It all depends on the number of concurrent users, number of test cases and requirements, number of test results, and lots of other factors. As a guideline, consider that our evaluation server, currently hosting hundreds of users with hundreds of test suites and many many thousands of test cases, requirements, and test results, is on a two processor 3GHz Xeon with 2GB of RAM and is using about 2GB of disk space.
