Product Introduction

Easy! Load Test™ is a load, stress and performance test tool for websites and intranet applications with web interface. It is designed for Windows 2000/2003/XP/Vista and Windows 98/Me operating systems.

Easy! Load Test is easy to use and a very cost-effective load, stress and performance test tool to test your websites, web servers, and web applications. You may test and analyze the performance of your website under various load conditions to find bottlenecks, errors and other problems.

Easy! Load Test is a PROACTIVE approach to potential problems rather being reactive to such problems after your web application is live on the web.

Today thousands of businesses worldwide face the challenge of establishing their web presence, a goal difficult to achieve without efficient load, stress and performance test tools. We made this testing EASY and AFFORDABLE. Using Easy! Load Test tool will give you peace of mind that your development efforts are successful.

Using Easy! Load Test will make your efforts more productive and increase your confidence in your website performance.

Benefits

Most performance issues arise only when the server is stressed with a high user load. This means that you should perform load, stress and performance test to understand how your website will react to different types of traffic patterns while real world users are surfing your website.

It can be difficult to perform such testing without the help of a group of real users. Easy! Load Test can simulate up to several thousands of real users’ behavior to check the performance of your site and find any bottlenecks. It provides you with results through descriptive reports and graphs.

Test Wizard will guide you through your test scenario creation depending on your testing objectives.

Easy! Load Test records users’ actions as they navigate through your website and then reproduces these steps during the test run for a more realistic test scenario. It can automatically capture and record the request parameter values in each HTTP request at run-time, i.e. the parameters go with the URI from link, the URI from form and the Random URI from List etc.

Easy! Load Test can perform additional verification check of server responses. You can specify some text string in request properties that should (or should not) be in the response in order to treat it as valid. It supports the following web technologies AJAX, ASP, ASP.NET, ColdFusion, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, and Ruby.

You have the option of performing a test during off business hours using the scheduled test run option. Easy! Load Test creates graphs for all user profiles, test sequences of each user and can be saved in HTML or CSV reports.

Easy! Load Test can be used along or with Easy!Flow integrated software development process platform, to find bugs and report them into issue tracker (bug tracker) system, then project manager can then evaluate actual code peer review effectiveness from testing result and tuning the development process from software project management point of view.
