![]() ![]() If you’re new to LoadRunner or need to pick up a few new techniques, you might refer to the March 2007 issue of Software Test & Performance for an excellent tutorial by consultant Francisco Sambade on using the tool to test multiple protocols. A controller module runs the scripts and can simulate large numbers of users while the analysis module tracks and graphs behavior and performance results. Script parameters can be modified as needed to adapt to different cases, data parameters (such as for keyword-driven testing), correlation and error handling. LOADRUNNER took the most votes in the data/test performance category, which groups products in terms of their ability to apply test data to an application or system and evaluate how it handles the processing.Īt the core of LoadRunner’s power is the Virtual User generator (VuGen), which creates test scripts for playback and test case simulation. This year’s categories included defect management, automation, security, performance, free solutions and those from new players-seventeen categories in all. So here’s your backstage pass to party with the best testing tools to take the stage in 2008, along with the two closest warm-up bands. ![]() Just as last year’s tallies bestowed the awesome LoadRunner with our Grand Prize for most votes overall, so too does the versatile tool receive this year’s top honor, leading in the individual categories of Java/Test Performance, Data/Test Performance and Load/Test Performance.
