Load / Stress Testing Portal ?

Hi ,
Are there any downloadable tools which will help Load / Stress Testing the EP7 ?
i want to simulate say 600 concurrent users accessing ESS functionaliy in the portal.
and analyse the response time , memory consumption etc.
what is the general practice to do this ?
Regards
Rajendra

Hi,
I have heard of LoadRunner and tried to find some info reg that. Hope these links will be useful.

Load / Stress Testing

Hello all. I am going to be running some tests on a standalone Tomcat 6 server which runs a couple of web apps i have written. I just wanted to ask for any advice on how to load/stress test, weather its and good software used, what to look out for or what the typical bottlenecks can be.
I understand every problem is different and unique but as this is my first time doing this i was looking for any helpful tips!
Thanks for any help given!

Thanks for any help given!You can check out open source options such as http://ripplet.sourceforge.net/ or a commercial offering such as HP's LoadRunner. Typical bottlenecks involve scarce resources (database connections, incoming sockets, file space, memory, threads, CPU. etc) It varies a lot. You certainly want some aspects of your application to handle high load (such as authenticating or re-authenticating a user, displaying layout and content other than the body of the page, etc.) After that, it really depends on your application.

Stress test tool and guidelines for tuning ADF 11g

Hi all,
I am working our ADF 11g application on load & stress testing. The load test works fine with some millions of full dummy rows (this generated data tool is easily written by ourself). The tunning only was done with only indexing. But with stress I'm concerning with RAM and other tunning parameters such IO and share pool from OS to DB and to WL servers and how to tune it for around 200-300 concurrent connections. I'm studying Jmeter for this purpose but still not get the answer. I have tested with Oracle Openscript but it worked very heavily slow :(.
The question here is that do you have any experiences on tuning parameters for such requirements and what is the best automatic test tool for testing multi-connections, please advise me.
Thank you very much.

Oracle Application Testing Suite has specific support for ADF testing:

Stress testing servlets

I want to test the performance of my single servlet by making multiple and concurrent user requests. Are there any tools out there to do this.
I tried JMeter but that does not seem to want to work.
Thanks in advance.
TP.

Hello,
I think that you do not use JMeter correctly. I encourage you to take a close look at the documentation for understanding how JMeter works (I know that the documentation is not really verbose and complete but it is sufficient enough for your needs).
For your information, I encourage you to take also a look at Load (PushToTest) and also OpenSTA (Cyrano). These two tools are under GNU-GPL license, and are really interesting if you want to load / stress test a Web application.
I hope it helps.

Stress Test on Portal

Hello,
We are on EP7.0 and trying to run the Open Enrollment for Benefits in the month of Nov. ...I want to know whether there is any tool to log in a number of users on the EP at one time to do a Stress test ...
Also, usually how many users logged on the Portal are considered to be performance effective.
Any help would be highly appreciated

Hi,
Have a look at JMeter (open-source) or Mercury LoadRunner (expensive but very powerful)

Load Scripts for stress testing any OAF related application

This may not be the correct forum. However, i'm sure many of you might have used load scripts to stress test your OAF related application.
Can any of please shed some light on how to make these load scripts for automated testing for finding the performance of OAF appls (like iPro or iExpense)? What tool do we use for these type of Self Serv appls? How can we parameterise some of the session related values inside load scripts?
Any of your experiences will give me a good start....Thanks

Answers to these questions are generally dependent on the application server to which you will be deploying, as each application server has its own means of tuning for performance.
For tuning Sun's App Server 8, see the online Performance Tuning Manual, at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2561

IDOC massive loading (for stress tests purposes)

Team,
Is there a clean and easy way to load (tons) of IDOC into SAP XI ?
Using the WE19 tcode ? Write an ABAP pgm that will loop ?
We are looking for a method to do our IDOC stress test.
Merci !

Hi,
in WE20 put IDOCs in collect mode (outbound profile)
then record WE19 and create a few 1.000
then bd87 and here we go
or BD10 and you can create many at once (materials)

Stress test Sharepoint 2013 portal. How and what do You use?

Hi!
I'm using example from here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj710162.aspx
It creates record in SP task list. I can loop it to create several records. But how can I simulate
several users?
Or what in common sense do You use to stress test sharepoint? Any links or better there is a book?
Best regards,
Gennady

>>You can use Visual Studio to create performance and stress testing projects.
Yes I know that I can use VS, it's in the link of my first post.
>>Check out my articles at:
Margriet, thank You very much! I see that You analyzed more than a hundred of tools and dived very deep into this question! Thank You for
the tool, it works for me!
1) But what You use to monitor server behavior, do You use Resource monitor? By example I can see some network and cpu activity during test, but how can I analyze this data..
or I'd use some video-capture tools(like 'camtasia studio'), record this system monitor and then analyze?
2) I understand correctly, that this tool covers "WFE test", mostly IIS, like pages generation; SQL database should be tested by other methods.
p.s.:Sorry for bad english)
upd.: added all Your counters, the picture looks impressive :-D

Database base storage stress test

Hi,
I have a ucm 11g instance up and running with SSO.
I need to test database storage against filesystem storage.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to test this?
Also I'm sure I read somewhere (but I can't find it now) that once I go in one direction I can't go back, does anyone have any details about this?
Many thanks
James

First of all, take a look at File Store Provider (here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e10792/c02_settings005.htm#CSMSP445)
In general, filesystem storage is always used even if you store data in the database, in the end. It is, though, understood as a temporary storage. In theory, you can keep your files in both locations and I see no reason why you should not be able to go from FS to DB and back, BUT you have to consider consequences (you might have to rebuild indexes or even migrate data from one storage to the other).
As for stress tests, first you have to decide WHAT you want to test. Potential candidates are:
- checkin of a single item (wasted effort: since FS is always used as an intermediate storage it will always be a bit faster)
- mass checkin (e.g. from Batch Loader - especially if you use Fast Checkin settings, db can be a bit faster, but you will need a real lot of small files)
- search
- update (metadata - wasted effort: should be the same)
- backup
- migration of content
Then, you will have to setup two environments with more-or-less the same conditions (CPU power, memory, disk speed).
And finally, you will have to create and run you test cases. I'd suggest to automate stress tests via writing a program calling the same services with the same data. Use WebServices (if non-Java) or RIDC (if Java).
Alternatively, if your task is "to get results" rather than "perform stress tests", you could try to approach consulting services or project managers to provide some normalized results for you. Something can be obtained in this whitepaper: http://www.oracle.com/us/products/middleware/content-management/ecm-extreme-performance-wp-077977.pdf

Error in running Jasper Reports for more than 100 users in stress test

I have created a web application with Jasper reports. during the stress test, we were able to run the same report simultaneously for 100 concurrent users, after that we get the following error. I hope there is no problem in my code (correct me if i am wrong)
We use Web Sphere
The error we get is as follows:

if this really cannot find the file, then how could it run successfully for 100 users?
Have anyone experienced this problem?
Thanks for your help.

ummm seems odd to have 100 users making a report.. that can be the limitation of your application..

Stress Test Oracle 9i

Hello,
I want to perform stress tests on my Oracle 9i database. Is there a software that you can recommend to use. Maybe even scripts or shareware. Thank you.

There are a variety of third party load test tools available, generally part of a suite of QA tools. You can also build your own test harnass.
99% of the work, however, is in figuring out what to run to put a representative stress on your application and, thus, your database. Figure out a representative number of OLTP users, a representative number of DSS users, an appropriate overlap in time and in data, etc.

Stress Test Tool

Dear Experts, I have here installed the Enterprise Portal only in JAVA, NW2004s 7.0.
Our Go-Live is near and I want to know if haves any tool to stress the access to my Portal.
Somebody know any free tool to stress the test that I need to do?
Thanks for all.

Hello Marcos,
we have used the "Web Application Stress Tool" for stress tests:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e2c0585a-062a-439e-a67d-75a89aa36495&displaylang=en
You can record a typical task in your portal and after that you can make a stress test with it.
After your stress test you will get an overview of the response times and performance. If you wish you can go in detail too.
Regards
Stefan

Stress test tool for EBS

Hi Hsawwan, other EBS APPS dba's!
We are trying to predict some performance according future load on EBS. This is classic stress test techniques. We want to automate stress on APPS side and run some requests and forms as well....
With "Load runner" we have unsolvable problems....
What can we use for that?
THX,
Damir Vadas

Damir,
With "Load runner" we have unsolvable problems....What do you mean by unsolvable problems?
What can we use for that?You may try OpenSTA.

Stress test Forms 9i

Hi,
I would like to perform an stress test on 9i Forms application and I have two approaches:
1) Buy a tool.
2) Build a client that performs petitions.
The first approach doesn't seem to work because I only know 1 provider which haven't answered to my request. Anybody knows tools like what I need?
For the second approach I would like to know:
* Is there any forms API which I could use to build my client? Probably there must be one because I only need the communication classes of the forms's applet and Interact with them.
Thanks. Miquel.

YES, you can do this by recording http traffic. This is exactly what you do with LoadRunner from Mercury Interactive. The recorder have a correlation tool wich take care of the dynamic part of the URL and modifies the generated script for you by inserting variables into the programmable script. I have used LoadRunner succesfully to stress test our Internet based Forms 9.0.2 application (http://www.syx.com). We did not dare to go alive without a fullscale test. LoadRunner did the job, and we found several scalability problems realted to the OS and AOS configuration. With LoadRunner you can setup several load generating servers - world wide if you like - each can simulate tousands of clients. Everthing can be orcestered from a mangament console where can can fire up clients with different scripts to form various load patters. E.g. I used one script wich logged users in, waited, and logged out. Other scripts instanciated and closed new forms all the time. E.g. by combining these scripts I could see how the server scaled when I had 200 passive users in the system, 10 users logging in every 10 seconds, 10 users logging out every 10th sec, and 50 users continuosly instanciating and closing new forms wich actually where running the most demanding DB query in our system.
