DTM is divided into the following components:

  1. DTM Clients are computers that run tests. You should have as many client computers with as many different configurations as possible so that your driver can be tested under the widest variety of real-world conditions. Clients should have different hardware and software configurations and different operating systems and service packs installed.

  2. DTM Controllers are computers that control what tests run on DTM clients and when those tests run. Controllers host a SQL database that stores tests to be run and the results of previous tests for review and future use.

  3. DTM Studio is the application and user interface that testers use to create and schedule tests and otherwise manipulate controllers and clients. With DTM Studio, you can organize the computers in your lab into the appropriate environment to test your driver.
