Client-free network speed test for GNU/Linux servers, using GNU libncurses to estimate network throughput between your server and wherever you are connecting from. Works on any client platform that has a terminal that supports curses (e.g. iOS, Android, Mac OS, Windows, Linux, etc).
NOTE: This package needs to be installed on the server you wish to measure. You can do that from the command line by running sudo snap install cspeedtest. You do not need to install this anywhere else. Just ssh to your server from anywhere (even an iPad), run cspeedtest and you'll get a measurement of network speed from the server to your terminal.
Depending on your terminal and/or connection, you may have to try both color and b/w modes (type c) to get the highest bound on speed. For testing compression (and for the fun of it) there are also some non-random animation patterns you can cycle through by typing r while running.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.
You need first add the snappy repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.
Tumbleweed:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
Leap 15.x:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
If needed, Swap out openSUSE_Leap_15. for, openSUSE_Leap_16.0 if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.
With the repository added, import its GPG key:
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new snappy repository:
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
Snap can now be installed with the following:
sudo zypper install snapd
You then need to either reboot, logout/login or source /etc/profile to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the snapd and the snapd.apparmor services with the following commands:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
To install cspeedtest, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install cspeedtest
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
