Load Testing

The Test Studio load testing tool enables you to get a better understanding of how your website might perform if simultaneously visited by a large number of users. This helps you assess whether or not your web apps meet business needs for availability and user satisfaction. Test Studio makes it easy for you to get started and find the data you need for informed decisions. You are also empowered with the flexibility to create elaborate, complex load scenarios to meet your most demanding needs. 

Simplified set-up saves time getting your testing environment ready. The easy creation of load test scripts helps you keep your focus on your tasks. Powerful, yet simple configuration options get your tests running quickly. Use any number of tests to create complex usage scenarios you need to mimic your site’s actual usage.

Have you already created functional UI tests in Test Studio? Set-up powerful profiles for those tests without having to modify them. You can also quickly tailor “think time” delays to simulate the pauses real users make as they navigate your site. To accurately simulate users easily pick dynamic targets from the suggestion list or create custom ones. Have you been capturing Telerik Fiddler traces of site activity during troubleshooting or monitoring? You can use that invaluable data directly by importing it to Test Studio as a test case.

How responsive is my site under different load conditions? How stable is my site when lots of users have been hitting it for days? How many users can my site support before it crashes? Test Studio helps you get answers to such critical questions and monitor your systems' performance.

Get live results based on reliable data during your test runs. Set your goals and benchmarks and then run your test. You get access to metrics such as average response time, total errors, traffic size, time to first byte and more. Compare results from different test runs in one easy to understand chart. Test Studio highlights areas where your system may be failing to meet load and performance goals, helping you stay focused on the key performance indicators. 

Get faster access to test results. Test Studio scheduling and execution infrastructure enables you to create combined test lists of functional, performance and load tests, as well as exclusive load test lists. You can schedule them to run across all available workstations in parallel, helping speed up the execution of large test lists.

Test Studio enables you to create user profiles to channel the traffic your web app gets from various mobile devices. Designing scenarios that represent different traffic channels (web browser, desktop client and mobile device) enables better real world simulation of user load against a site or a web service.  

Test Studio enables customers to gather the performance and stability information of the server, such as throughput, CPU usage and web methods’ response time when there are thousands of concurrent users. Modern web applications employ a variety of web services and many pages have AJAX calls to RESTful web services. High response time and poor performance of the web services can lead to unsatisfied web application users.

Whether you use in-house or third party services such as stock market tickers, weather reports or news feeds, Test Studio enables you to load test your web services to help ensure their reliable performance.
