Eclipse is an open source community, whose projects are focused on building an open development platform comprised of extensible frameworks, tools, and runtimes for building, deploying, and managing software across the life cycle. The Eclipse Foundation is a not-for-profit, member-supported corporation that hosts the Eclipse projects and helps cultivate both an open source community and an ecosystem of complementary products and services.

TPTP is a project in the Eclipse community that provides powerful frameworks and services for an open platform upon which developers build unique test and performance tools-both open source and commercial-that easily integrate with Eclipse and other tools and address the entire test and performance life cycle, from developer testing through production monitoring.

The key points about the architecture of Rational Performance Tester are:
