Back in April, 2007, Nathaniel Gray introduced Backup Bouncer, a suite of tests that can be used to evaluate a backup solution's ability to preserve HFS+ filesystem metadata. Since then, I have discovered a few bugs in the test suite that would prevent it from accurately reporting results on various platform:OS combinations. I also identified some areas where Backup Bouncer could do a bit more, so I fleshed out some of the tests to be a bit more thorough. Finally, I also added support for testing the support of HFS+ filesystem compression, a feature added in Snow Leopard. See also this report of the Backup Bouncer results for Carbon Copy Cloner.
