I have a website in PHP, Lighttpd. It uses also MySQL on Centos 5. I've tested my PHP with code below with Apache Bench (ab). It resulted in some errors (Failed Requests) indicating other length than normal. I'm absolutely sure that my PHP result should always have the same exact length. I've reviewed my Lighttpd and MySQL logs and error...

Is there a rule on how often an application should be stress or load tested? I normally do it before putting into production a new version, when the hardware changes or when the expected amount of users is known to change. But today i'm asked if this should be a standard practice for an application that is in production even if no chan...

I have DNS pointing all 200 IPs at the client box on which the virtual clients will be running. Does anyone know how to configure this? I have been assured that it can be do...
I'm using SoapUI to load test one of our .net webservices. I'm new to SoapUI, so I've run through the "getting started", using a publicly available service, and had no problems.

Hi All, Can someone recommend a load testing tool which allows you to either - a) replay an IIS (7) log(s) to simulate a real live site daily run. b) import a CSV or equivalent list of URLS so we can achieve a similar thing as above but at a URL level. NEW: c) A .net API so I can create simple tests easily from my list of URLS is als...
My Ruby on Rails application is mostly contained behind a login page. I'd still like to be able to stress test these pages, as they have some heavy database access. Sending the username and password into a post for my login isn't difficult, but the Authenticity Token keeps changing, which makes my tests unrepeatable. Is there a way to...
suppose I want to test a server's and its web application's ability to handle many simultaneous connections well and show decent latency. So ideally I would want a thousand machines to bombard it with usage requests, but that's not practicable. So instead, can I just make a testing script with a thousand threads to run on the same server...
How to know the maximum load of my application or server. I need to know this to decide whether my application need to be cluster or not. If we have to do a test to know, so we need a lot of concurrent client to hit the server. But we can't simulate this like in the real world, how to simulate concurrent millions of people..? Maybe we ...
I'm trying to load-test a Rails application using JMeter. A critical part of the application involves a form that includes both text inputs and file uploads. It works fine in a browser, but when I try to post that page in JMeter, Rails is saving all of the parts of the multipart form as temp files, which causes things to break when it'...
