PingTester: Open-Source Speed Testing Tool

Measures latency and packet loss with ICMP ping packets, featuring history graphs, shareable test links, and server groupings.

What is PingTester?

PingTester is an open-source web application for testing network latency and packet loss. It works by sending ICMP ping packets to servers and measuring the round-trip time and packet loss percentage.

Some key features of PingTester include:

• Real-time graphs showing latency and packet loss over time
• The ability to add multiple test servers and group them into custom server groups
• Shareable short test links that anyone can access to run speed tests
• Threshold alerts that notify you when certain latency or loss levels are exceeded
• Basic historical reporting to see changes over days/weeks
• Open-source codebase allows extending functionality as desired

PingTester provides an easy way to continuously monitor connectivity quality to internal and external servers. It's less featured than commercial alternatives but provides the basic speed test and reporting functionality at no cost. The shareable test links make it easy to collect measurements from distributed sites.
