# Compilation
After installation, you can use pkg-config to compile these tests.
For example, to compile random-test-server run:
gcc random-test-server.c -o random-test-server `pkg-config --libs --cflags libmodbus`
- `random-test-server` is necessary to launch a server before running
random-test-client. By default, it receives and replies to Modbus query on the
localhost and port 1502.
- `random-test-client` sends many different queries to a large range of
addresses and values to test the communication between the client and the
server.
- `unit-test-server` and `unit-test-client` run a full unit test suite. These
programs are essential to test the Modbus protocol implementation and libmodbus
behavior.
- `bandwidth-server-one`, `bandwidth-server-many-up` and `bandwidth-client`
return very useful information about the performance of transfert rate between
the server and the client. `bandwidth-server-one` can only handles one
connection at once with a client whereas `bandwidth-server-many-up` opens a
connection for each new clients (with a limit).
