Load Testing in the Cloud

Software Testing Tools

LoadStorm™ is a set of on-demand web application testing tools. These software testing tools are designed from the ground up to simulate large numbers of users for load testing and performance testing. And the best part? It's very cost-effective.

While our name implies Load Testing, LoadStorm is designed to be an outstanding regression testing tool and Agile testing tool as well. Automated test plans are created in LoadStorm and can be executed as frequently as you like. Since regression tests don't require large volumes of users, you can essentially get the functionality for free because we only charge for the traffic over an allotted amount.

Some terms may have the same meaning, however we see some terms as slightly different components of web performance testing, and for clarification we describe how you can use LoadStorm for each on these pages:

If you are looking at your load testing analysis graphs and wondering, "What do I do about it?" One of our performance engineers can take your LoadStorm test results with other data you provide (server logs, CPU/memory utilization, error logs, etc.) and make recommendations of where to find bottlenecks and what to do about them. This is not a consulting engagement - this is coaching.

By utilizing a cloud computing infrastructure, you can quickly ramp up and down thousands of concurrent users moving through your application performing different tasks. You only pay for the usage (bandwidth) during the test. No license fees. No maintenance fees. No servers to buy. No charge for configuring your tests. It couldn't be simpler or less expensive. Just web application testing.

We developed LoadStorm to solve a specific need for web application developers. How can a developer easily determine how user volume affects application performance? It is fairly easy to test an application manually or with automated tools for one user or a small number of users, but the cost and difficulty of simulating large numbers of users rises quickly.

Improve Performance

Looking for a simple way to speed up your site? We found a cool performance solution that can deliver HUGE improvement without rewriting your web application. aiCache web application acceleration is a new partner with LoadStorm because they can help our clients where we cannot. It's a great alternative to buying biggers servers, implementing load balancers, or re-architecting your app.

Placing aiCache in front of your web servers increases the number of requests per second and concurrent users you can sustain by orders of magnitude - delivers in excess of 250,000 HTTP requests per second while managing hundreds of thousands of connected clients.

Woot.com uses LoadStorm for performance testing and aiCache to handle the crush of traffic. They have saved a bunch of money and eliminated time spent optimizing.
