Tools for load testing SharePoint 2007

Please advice a tools, which i can use for load testing a SharePoint 2007. We had one issue with performance and want now to detect a reason. So i need to simulate a load testing with 500-600 users for one SharePoint page.
I have found some information, that i can use a Visual Studio Test Edition, but my level of MSDN subscriber has just a Visual Studio. May be there is another free tools for this...

Hi Evgeny,
SharePoint test data load tool (WSSDW.exe) can be used for your scenario, this article should help you to start with-

Which tool do you use for load testing?

Which tool do you use for load testing for J2EE application?

hi,
i use jmeter for without issues..
first make sure that the system from where you are doing load testing is in the same lan(without firewall) to that of server. Here you are testing the capacity of server and not the network bandwith.
So assuming very good network connection what is the servers performance level...
If u have to decide which tool is decent enough to load testing,
i would suggest go for jmeter. its reliable and i have used it without problems.
Here is my quick tutorial for jemeter which i made for my teams reference.
REFERENCE
     For Getting Started refer to any tutorial for Jmeter
     You can refer to introduction on
          http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/
RUNNING LOAD TEST
     Extract jakarta-jmeter-2.3RC4.zip in c:
     install jdk-1_5_0_12-windows-i586-p.exe
     Run C:\jakarta-jmeter-2.3RC4\bin\jmeter.bat
     In Test Plan add Thread Group
     Right Click Thread Group -> Add->Sampler->HTTP Request
     Select HTTP Request added fill details
          Serverip:www.xyz.com
          Port:80
          Path:/xyz-webapp/index.jsp
          Use KeepAlive: Checked
          Retrive All Embeded images from HTML: Checked(For geting images inside html)
     Right Click Thread Group -> Add->Listner->Graph Results
     Click on Thread Group Fill details
          No of Threads:3(This means no of simultaneous users)
          Ramp Up Period:1(3 Request will be made in 1 second period)
          Loop Count:5(Above process should be repeated how many times)
     Save TestPlan
     Run -> Clear All
     Run -> Start
          Click on Graph Results for Output
     Try adding different listener in Thread Group
          Thread Group -> Add->Listner->Summary Report
     Listeners coud be added at thread group level or HTTP Request Level
RECORDING A TEST.
     Add a HTTP proxy server in workbench by right clicking on it and selecting Add->Non test Element->HTTP Proxy Server.
     In Test Plan Add Thread Group
     In HTTP proxy server select Target Controller as Test Plan > Thread Group.
     Go to Internet Explorer and go to internet settings and set proxy server as localhost and the port
          which is configured in Jmeter proxy server.Save Settings.
     In Jeter proxy server start by Clicking on Start button in the HTTP Proxy Server Flap.
     In browser navigate the application which you want to test.
     The nodes will be added in the Thread Group.
     Once Navigation is done stop the proxy server and save the test plan from file menu.
LOGGING INTO APPLICATION.
     When we have to login into system and then navigate the system
          we need a cookie to be tracked after login. This could be achieved
          simply by Add -> Config Element -> HTTP Cooie Manager.
     After adding the HTTP Cooie Manager simply run the test.
LOOPING COUNTER.
     When a request is made multiple parameter is sent to server.
     Parameters are sent from the HTTP Request node added in the Thread Group
          in "Send Parameter with the request" table.
     If we run the loop count 10 times the parameters will be sent same in every request.
     If you have to send parameters like user1,user2,user3,user4....
          then add -> Pre processor -> Counter.
     Put start as 1 and and Maximum as 10 or whatever required.
     Put Referene name as iCtr or whatever.
     In the "Send Parameter with the request" in value column put user${iCtr}

Is Controller essential to test application in OATS for load testing

Hello
Is Controller tool essential to test application in OATS for Load testing?

Hi,
Yes. The controller is responsible for setting up the load test scenario, and for initialising all VU's on the agent systems.

Application Insights for load testing in VS 2013, Azure Preview or Visual Studio Online?

I'm trying to get some clarification on which version of application insights to use to get performance counters from application insights for my azure cloud service for load and performance testing purposes.
So far, its not be clear what the differences between the two versions are, after deploying first the Azure Preview version, I attempted to set up performance counters using application insights but was shown an error because my visual studio online account
did not have an associated application insights instance.
Is it possible to get performance counters using AI for load testing using the Azure Preview version? If so, how? If not, is that planned as a new feature or will performance counters for VSO cloud based load testing have to be used when support for the
VSO version of application insights is eventually dropped?
Thanks,
Luke

Hi Alex, thanks for your response. I do have an Azure account, and have tinkered with AI in Azure Preview. My question was more about what the differences between the VSO and azure preview versions of AI are.
When I initially deployed AI to the azure portal and tried to run load tests from visual studio (cloud load tests, that is) I could not. Its possible I had made a mistake in configuring the azure version of application insights though. Strangely enough,
I actually do still see application insights data in the azure preview portal after I removed the newer AI version and installed AI 1.3.
To clarify my question, is it or will it be possible to run cloud based load tests (using visual studio online or another integrated service) against a azure web role deployed with application insights for azure and get performance counters of the system
under test via AI? To do that, will I also have an application insights application in the visual studio online account (similar to how I do now with the VSO version of AI), because that seems to be a requirement to load performance counters from application
insights within visual studio.
Thanks and sorry if I misunderstood your answer.

OpenScript fails to record AJAX element for load testing

OpenScript 12.2.0.1 is failing to record AJAX element for load testing.
After I press a button a text box should appear in another part of the screen.
What can I do in this case?

Hi,
I think your password is encrypted. Try replace password "a99fad1866af01d9375627d5d08d7f1c11ed4d3f6d5d2372d40908884a15b8e6" with your password.
Or Get output of obfuscate("your password") and replace "a99fad1866af01d9375627d5d08d7f1c11ed4d3f6d5d2372d40908884a15b8e6" with {{@deobfuscate( output of obfuscate("your password") )}}

Finding some tool for loading data

I will finding some tools for loading, migrate
data from another dbms like Access, DBF Files, Excel
to Oracle Database
Please suggess me
Thank you
Kachornsak

I suppose the various sources will have various optimal solutions.
Like in case you want to import from excel I would suggest to save your data to a csv and use import. (imp)
For access files the best solution is the Oracle Migration Workbench.

Load test SharePoint Online

I'm putting in a critical solution for a company using SharePoint Online. It's pretty much out of the box, but the customer insists that a load-testing exercise takes place to ensure that when they go live with it, it will cope with their number of users
without falling over or slowing down too much. Test cases are fairly simple: browse to the site, search, open a document, maybe occasionally edit a document or upload a new one. Usage will be fairly intense from their point of view but nothing that I can see
SPO having any trouble with whatsoever. However I have to prove it.
Has anyone found a load-testing application that will work with SharePoint Online? The test platform must run on local machines to simulate requests coming from the company, so cloud-based testing is out. I have been trying with VS2013 Ultimate, and have
managed to get it to authenticate just one time, but mostly it refuses.
An automated test tool would also be useful for future regression testing.

The problem with "load testing" SPO is that you'll be throttled fairly quickly with a high load (similar to being throttled when attempting to migrate GBs of content to SPO). Since you cannot have any impact on the environment anyways, you would
have to contact Microsoft if you encountered a performance issue, but load testing isn't going to be an accurate gauge of that.

New CAS for Load Balancing Exchange 2007

I want to add a new CAS to an existing Exchange 2007 environment (there is already one CAS and it functions properly) to allow for load balancing. After adding the new server I wanted to do some testing (before I actually set it up for load balancing).
If I try to log in to a mailbox using OWA I get an error stating that "Exception type: Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.ConnectionFailedTransient ExceptionException message: Cannot open mailbox". I am sure I am missing something simple, but cannot
figure it out. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Is your new CAS in the same Windows site as the rest of your Exchange servers? In Exchange 2007 and 2010, the CAS needs to be in the same Windows site as the mailbox it is servicing (unless you are accessing from the Internet and the other site has
no externally accessible CAS).

Tools for automation testing on iPhone

Hi Ahetejaz,
What’s the detail requirement of security testing?
In the VS2012, we can do unit test, web test, load test and so on. I think all of them can’t do the security testing.

I think you need to find security test tool on the internet.

Forms test tools (functional & load testing)

Hi,
we are looking for test-tools.
primary we want to automate functional tests of our forms app (10g).
secondary we want to stress our app by load testing.
which tool do you use?
thanks for any suggestions!
florian.
p.s. the mercury tools are too expensive for us ;-)

Forms2test is a load and stress testing tool of testNext

Please recommend a tool for stress-testing ?

Could anyone please recommend a (free) tool to do multi-threaded stress-test, on plain java classes ?
In more detail: I'd like to do unit-test for some plain java methods (only mathematical calculations. No web interface, no swing).
The emphasis is stress test: i need to launch multiple threads, all of them repeately invoking my method. Under these conditions, I need to report correctness (has the method yielded the expected return value), and statistics on response time.
Any recommendations would be appreciated . Thanks !

Besides j2se or jdom, any fast tool for it?What do you mean with "j2se", that's not a XML handling tool (it contains several, 'though).
SAX sounds good for building object trees from XML, but there are several XML mapping libraries out there (try google).
