    Load Testing in Test Studio 2013 R2

    Web applications are a lot more complicated these days than even a few years ago.  We don’t hear a lot these days about Web services as a development technology, but virtually every Web application that uses commonly provided services will access those service via traditional Web services technology.  If your Web application reports on the weather, or provides a stock market update, you are using a Web service.  A Web service uses HTTP, but it runs the SOAP, REST, or similar protocol over that.  And if your stock market updates are slow or accumulating timeout errors, chances are you are ...

Obviously, IE isn’t the only browser being used, and adding the ability to record tests in Chrome, Firefox & Safari was paramount for our recent release. As the Test Studio engineers explored methods of accomplishing this, several factors lead them to determine that the best choice for doing this in-browser work was to use JavaScript and Telerik’s own Kendo UI control set.
