Advantages of Micro Focus QALoad

Scalable Testing

Using Micro Focus QALoad, you can emulate the load generated by hundreds or thousands of users on your application—without requiring the involvement of the end users or their equipment. You can easily repeat load tests with varied system configurations to achieve optimum performance.

From the Conductor module in QALoad, you set up a load testing scenario to control the conditions for the test, create the virtual users you need to simulate the load, initiate and monitor test and report the results. A Player module simulates the roles of users performing multiple functions using testing scripts that represent your application

Streamlined Test Script Development

Micro Focus QALoad's Script Development Workbench provides customized modules that facilitate the development of testing scripts. These modules, called EasyScripts, allow testers to record the traffic an application generates and convert it into a testing script.

The resulting scripts directly reflect the actual traffic generated by the application and measure the time taken to perform these transactions to ensure that the system under test will perform to specifications under load.

Comprehensive Performance Analysis

QALoad provides users with a comprehensive set of performance statistics that can be viewed both during and after QALoad test session.  . QALoad enables testers to insert checkpoints into scripts to identify and review specific areas of system performance for a test. QALoad automatically presents test results in a variety of easy to understand reports, graphs and charts. The data from a testing session can also be automatically exported to a variety of different formats enabling the testing team to quickly communicate findings.

Integrated Analysis of Key Performance Metrics

QALoad enables users to understand the root cause of performance issues by providing an in-depth view of metrics for the application, operating system, database and network components. The integrated monitoring allows you to rapidly pinpoint bottlenecks that impact application performance while you generate a realistic load on your system.”
