Minimum system impact
- Software as a Service- Load tests are performed from the outside and no software installation is needed.
- Load tests are performed during off-peak hours and web site behaviour close to the capacity limit is closely monitored so that potential crashes are avoided.
True representation of your business and users
- Run load tests from geographical locations, in Europe or the US, that corresponds to the distribution of your users.
- Stress test specific pages or complete transactions consisting of many steps which simulate typical user paths and tasks on your site.
- Support for dynamic content such as search strings, user IDs and URLs.
Analysis for web performance improvement
- Analyze load test results for different ISPs and regions and use as input in discussions with your ISPs and DNS service providers.
- Load test results are subdivided into the performance of pages, URLs and components of the application, which facilitates the identification of bottlenecks.
- In addition to knowing your capacity limit, results include a detailed “load curve” which shows the performance ( web site response time) as the load approaches it’s maximum limit.
Integrated tools in the Apica WebExcellence suite
- Monitor your load test scenarios in production with Apica WebPerformance. Apica Loadtest is integrated with Apica WebPerformance, and you’ll be able to use the same test scripts in both applications.
