When Load Testing Just Works

One of the main features I wanted to design into a load testing tool was the ability to “just work” for most things. Reverse engineering how a website works just to get a load test done is no fun, especially since its possible to automate much of the process and you can spend your time testing instead. Which is why it was great to get an email from someone trying our demo who noticed we handled his dynamic SID configuration in a few minutes where his previous load testing tool took four hours.

The specific thing I was referring to was a link to logout where the SID changes with every unique login. Your application made it easy to dynamically change that SID parameter on every unique login.

The working URL is https://xxx.xxx/portal/user/logoff.aspx?SID=68D3D2F676E35A9518CEB500FF50D963131D02F0D1

The reason this works is our Advanced State Management (ASM) logic looks for this type of thing and automatically configures test cases to handle it in most cases. And for those rare cases it misses the configuration just takes a couple of minutes, and its possible to configure a rule so its handled automatically in the future.

If you have any ideas on what would save you time in your website performance testing please drop me a line.
