Tools of the trade

 

The following is an overview of a small choice of load testing tools. It is by no means complete, nor does it imply a recommendation or endorsement of these tools. In the author's opinion the most comprehensive performance testing tools are (in no special order) Mercury LoadRunner, Rational TestStudio® and Segue SilkPerformer. These tools have a very broad and deep functionality but they are also quite expensive, while for your special case some other (possibly open-source licensable) tool might do the job as well. ApacheBench and OpenSTA gives a brief introduction to these two open-source load testing packages, while in Other testing tools you will find a few links to additional performance testing products and projects.
