The Testbed samples the files in the CI-BER collection to find those meeting a pre-defined test profile. Tests are run in parallel to simulate future server load and each individual test operation result is recorded in the database, as well as the overall performance of the test battery.

The format and operations within a given set of tests, along with the number of parallel test workers are all part of a test profile logged in MongoDB. Currently the profile includes the number of files for each desired format, by extension.
