Application Test Center
|
Application Test Center is a Microsoft load testing tool for web servers, focussed on ASP. It operates in a similar fashion to the market leader Mercury LoadRunner in simulating numerous HTTP sessions from one machine. Using a bank of say four personal computers, all firing off repeated HTTP requests a significant load can be simulated. Tests can be written in either of the Microsoft scripting languages VB Script and J Script. The tool can also be used for functional testing, although that is not what it is designed for. Like LoadRunner, it contains a 'tape recorder' like function to create test cases without having to programme them in.
