Winball501's Antivirus Test Tool
Winball501's Antivirus Test Tool is a lightweight utility developed specifically for testing antivirus software. It is not an antivirus itself, but a helper tool that makes the testing process easier, more organized, and more efficient.
Features
Error-Based Logging The tool does not explicitly report whether a file was executed, blocked, or skipped. Instead, it captures and records the error messages from try–catch blocks, giving testers useful insights into how antivirus software reacts during execution attempts.
Progress Tracking with Temporary Files To avoid repeating samples during testing, the tool creates two temporary files:
executed.txt: Keeps track of how many samples have been opened.
notexecuted.txt: Keeps track of how many samples have not been opened.
Resume Functionality Thanks to the temporary tracking files, the tool can continue exactly from the last tested sample if the process is interrupted.
Purpose
This tool was built for antivirus testing. It helps researchers and developers:
✔ Evaluate antivirus performance against test samples
✔ Save time by avoiding duplicate test runs
✔ In testing system can be restarted or crashed, this tool provide you not lose progress.
