Web Performance Trainer™ 2.3 Released
Raleigh, NC, Nov 8, 2001 – Web Performance Inc. is proud to announce the release of version 2.3
of the load testing product Web Performance Trainer&trade containing some
of the most requested features from our customers. Short descriptions
of the new features are given below, or you can check out the new 2.3
manual online. If you have a need for load testing software in the near
future we hope you’ll give this new version a try.
Support for Proxy Servers
Performance tests can now be configured to record and execute tests
through a Proxy Server. You can now run tests from behind a firewall
and proxy server to anywhere on the Internet.
Capture Error Pages During a Test
When errors are detected during a test, more detailed information is
now collected. This information, including the entire HTTP Request and
Response, can be examined to aid post-test analysis and debugging.
Enhanced Page Validation
URLs can now be validated during a test by text comparison of the content.
You can configure each individual URL so that during a load test,
either the presence or absence of a text string will signal an error,
and that page will be captured for post-test examination.
Auto-discovery of Remote Playback Engines
When playback engines are present on the local network, they are detected
and added to the engine list on the Playback tab.
Export Graph Data to CSV format (Excel)
Data exported from graphs is now written in CSV format, which is readable
by most spreadsheet applications. This greatly simplifies the task
of importing the data to Excel, since Excel natively supports
the CSV format with no separate import step required.
Additional Network Speed Settings
Network speed simulation now includes several additional speed selections,
including DSL, Cable and LAN options.
Readily Available version/license information
The Help->About screen now includes most of the information required
when submitting support requests, including the version, build number
and license details.
