Tutorials, articles, tools and resources on how to perform load testing in software testing.
This short tutorial presents a basic introduction to HP LoadRunner automated load testing tool. You will learn how to generate scripts with the Virtual User Generator, design and run a load test in the Controller and analyze the test results.
This article discusses how to build a portfolio of scenarios for load testing automation. You have rarely only a single scenario to test, so you have to decide which scenarios to include in your test plans. Criticality, frequency, difficulty and verifiability are the four key factors that should be considered to determine the scenarios to automate.
This video presents HP LoadRunner and explains how the individual components of HP LoadRunner and HP Diagnostics are installed.

Apache JMeter is open source Java desktop software designed to load test functional behavior and measure performance. It was originally designed for testing Web Applications but has since expanded to other test functions.
Apache JMeter is a performance testing tool which is entirely written in Java. Any application that works on request/response model can be load tested with JMeter. A relational database is not an exception: receives sql queries, executes them and returns the results of the execution. This post shows you how easy it is to set up test scenarios with the graphical user interface of JMeter.
