%X PlanetLab is being used extensively to conduct experiments, implement and study large number of applications and protocols in Internet-like environment. With this increase in PlanetLab usage, there is a pressing need to have efficient way to setup and mange experiments. This paper proposes a graphical user interface-based tool, called ConTest, to setup and mange experiments over PlanetLab. ConTest enables PlanetLab users to setup experiment and collect results in a transparent and easy way. This tool also allows different measurements for different variables over the PlanetLab network. The paper discusses the design and implementation of ConTes and shows different scenarios.
