Developer’s Description

By Web Performance

Generate up to a million users from the cloud to find out how many users your site can handle.

At the push of a button you can generate up to 1,000,000 virtual users from the cloud to test the entire application stack, including the firewall, or generate load from inside your test lab to concentrate on server performance by itself. Can your site's public pages take a huge influx of users? Load Tester LITEÃ?Â¢?Ã?Â¢ can throw up to 1,000,000 concurrent users at basic web pages. What do we consider a basic web page? Any page that you could view by following a link from another site is considered a basic page. In other words, most of the public pages on most websites.

The first thing a professional web performance engineer does is check to make sure there's enough bandwidth availabile to handle the expected load. Load Tester Lite will both estimate the amount of bandwidth required based on actual recordings of your site, and then put that to the test by generating enough load to saturate the network.

While Load Balancers have a reputation of just working out of the box, we've run across plenty of misconfigured Load Balancers. These don't take complicated scripts to test, just simple web pages and lots of load. While Load Tester LITE is restricted to basic, static web pages, it handles cookies and the latest forms of SSL exactly like a user on a real browser. Corporate setups like Integrated Windows Authentication and password protected proxy servers are also supported.
