Test Studio support for windows application

[Rahul]

Hi,

Can we use Test Studio to do performance and load testing of windows based application. The application is a WPF app using WCF in the background with SQL server.

And can the same test be done on a Borland C++ application using Test Studio?

If not, do you know any tool that can do it?

Thanks

Hello Rahul,

Unfortunately Test Studio cannot perform load testing against WPF application.The load testing itself is built using a client/server model such as web servers. I am afraid that is the reason you will not be able to find a proper solution for your needs but you can look over the Internet for solution.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Ivaylo,

What about performance testing? Can test studio do that for WPF applications?

Thanks

Hello Rahul,

Unfortunately Performance testing is also not available for WPF application.

Hi Ivaylo,

What about testing WCF web services? Can test studio do load and performance tests on these? And to what extent? Are there any known limitations?

Thanks

[Ivaylo]

Hello Rahul,

Unfortunately you cannot perform any of these against WCF services as well. 

More about you can learn from the Performance and Load testing articles from our documentation. Going through the documentation will answer any further questions you might have.

Hi Ivaylo,

I checked the documentation, but I still have this question: apart from automating functional tests cases, is there anything else that we can use Test Studio for WPF applications?

Thanks

Hello Rahul,

If you are testing WPF applications you can only use functional testing with Test Studio.

Thanks for your understanding.
