AppLoader Stations – Simulate users and play scenario when instructed by the console. Multiple sessions of AppLoader Station together produce load on the application as real users would.
Session Initiator – Opens sessions on the TS. From here, can view the stations activity in their respective windows.
Console – For controlling the AppLoader stations and running the load tests
AppLoader Reporter – for viewing results of the load test and correlation of application performance with behavior of back end components as application is stressed.
AppLoader Station allows you to:
• build and play Scenarios using an intuitive GUI
• load / stress applications, or control QoS
• calculate Scenario execution time for any given application
• send the Scenario and Transaction execution results per loop to the AppLoad Management Console.
AppLoader Console allows you to:
• control the Stations
• distribute scenarios to Stations
• set a certain number of loops for playback
• launch the test campaign
• generate load-test results for graphing and reporting in the Reporter
• distribute Scenario variables
Session Initiator will help you open large amounts of RDP or ICA sessions on a Terminal Server or a Citrix MetaFrame Server to simulate a large number of users.
AppLoader Reporter allows you to view reports and graphs on the load test. Examples include:
• View the average response times of the scenario and the transactions it is comprised of during the load test.
• Correlate the response time delays and the use of the computer system resources (using SystemWatch and other components of the Chroniker suite) as number of users increases.
