Answer 1

In fact this depends on your infrastructure. If you have a lot of computers available to simulate a multi user environment you can use OpenSTA. I've tried a lot of tools and i'm finally landed on Apache JMeter. It is easy to install and to use.

There is also a companion tool that can be used to generate test scripts for JMeter: Badboy.

Answer 2

I have not used this but there is WebAII, a free UI test engine for .Net. Telerik supports this testing framework as well.

Answer 3

You could try the Web Application Stress Tool from Microsoft.

Answer 4

I would recommend Visual Studio Team System Test Edition.

Have used the test types load testing and web testing.
Worked very well.
