Business Scenario-Based Performance Diagnostics Procedures

• Business Scenario-Based Performance Monitoring and Diagnosis

Assumptions

We need a load generator that is capable of the following:

• Generate load on behalf of multiple application users, concurrently, in such a way that each user should be capable of performing an interactive session setup, interact repeatedly within the application by executing a set of arbitrary business scenarios in a loop, and then end the session.

• Insert arbitrary data in the requests it had previously recorded and it is replaying as part of the load tests. At minimum, the load generator must be able to insert arbitrary constant strings as custom header values in specific requests in the run sequence. More sophisticated analysis require additional capabilities, such as inserting unique identifiers per request, iteration, inserting request sequence numbers, etc..

NeoLoad is one of products.
