German term or phrase: Helferlein
Here is the sentence:
'Mitzuführen sind folgende Images und "Helferlein"'

It is in a section entitled "Software / ISOS" of a chapter entitled "TESTS" of a book about setting up server farm environments etc.

I can't really give the list of stuff to be brought along, but it includes a couple of different versions of Unix and "Windows ISOs".

I tend to think of "applets", but I wonder whether there is an official translation around.

Well it could be "assistant", but not that. This is about systems stuff, and it's mostly Linux and Unix, although Windoze is mentioned.
