LoadRunner is an automated load testing tool
that allows you to test your application
before, during, and after deployment. This
course is designed to give you a firm
foundation in basic load testing tasks. The
LoadRunner Controller and Analysis will be
covered in this course. You will create and
run load test scenarios using the
Controller. The Analysis is used to analyze
load test results. You will learn to work
with the graphs to display data after a test
is run. All topics are supported by hands-on
labs designed to provide you with the
knowledge necessary to load test your system
using LoadRunner. |
Quality Assurance Engineers
Performance Engineers
New users of LoadRunner who need to load
test their applications and/or executives
who will involved in any part of load
testing |
At the end of the course, you will be able
to:
Identify information that needs to be gathered for load testing.
Identify the components of LoadRunner.
Apply the workflow recommended for creating a basic LoadRunner scenario.
Assign scripts, run-time settings, performance monitors, load generators and Vusers to a LoadRunner scenario based on your load testing goals.
Load test your application by running a scenario.
