I have been trying to load test my API server using Locust.io on EC2 compute optimized instances. It provides an easy-to-configure option for setting the consecutive request wait time and number of concurrent users . In theory, rps = wait time X #_users . However while testing, this rule breaks down for very low thresholds of #_users (in my experiment, around 1200 users). The variables hatch_rate , #_of_slaves , including in a distributed test setting had little to no effect on the rps . Experiment info The test has been done on a C3.4x AWS EC2 compute node (AMI image) with 16 vCPUs, with

Possible Duplicate: How do you stress test a web application? Currently I have configured a project with cc.net, watin and nunit and now I want to do stress, load, and performance testing of my .net projects. Any idea which opensource tool should I use or cani achive it with same working tools and if yes then how? The service my company provides is not open source, but it's pretty cool and builds on open source. It's a load testing service that uses real browsers to play back load (as opposed to simulated HTTP/virtual users). We use Selenium as the playback engine, which should be somewhat

Does anyone know of a good tool to test load and stress on webservices? I've been looking at Watir and Selenium, but there more web page centered. Ryan Doherty Here are some common load testing tools: HTTP_Load Apache JMeter Grinder HTTPperf AB You should definitly take a look a SoapUI . I actually like Pylot It's free, open source, and I've been able to use it for a number of projects. I've used openSTA . This uses a relatively simple script language. You can easily test web services and write your own scripts. It allows you to put scripts together in a test in any way you want and configure

When I make HTTP Request in JMeter I get Response data like "This page uses JavaScript and requires a JavaScript enabled browser." How is it possible to fix this problem. JMeter is not a browser, and does not interpret the JavaScript in downloaded pages. From the JMeter wiki : JMeter does not process Javascript or applets embedded in HTML pages. JMeter can download the relevant resources (some embedded resources are downloaded automatically if the correct options are set), but it does not process the HTML and execute any Javascript functions. If the page uses Javascript to build up a URL or

Is there a way to test an application where you simulate a hundred different clients connecting to a IIS server and asking the same data? At the customer where our project is running they have 400 computers and they often do stress tests with all computers. I on the other hand have only got my laptop... (and a development server). (In my case the data is asked through a WebORB Gateway). ab is a tool that was designed for Apache, but you can use it with IIS .
