The invention is directed to techniques for monitoring and testing publish/subscribe network systems. For example, an enterprise network that has a number of geographically dispersed network devices and interconnected sub-networks may be configured to operate as a publish/subscribe network system in which each of the dispersed network devices sends and receives messages for specific groups of the network devices. The techniques described herein enable data object capture and analysis in the application layer of a publish/subscribe network system using shim adapters. The techniques also enable network packet capture and analysis in the network layer of a publish/subscribe network system. Furthermore, the techniques include integrated analysis of testing results from the application layer and the network layer to determine performance characteristics, such as latency, across both of the layers. In this way, the techniques provide more accurate measurements of performance characteristics in publish/subscribe network systems.
