WAPT Pro 5: Scalable performance testing solution

WAPT Pro combines the ease of use that has been recognized in WAPT tools over the last decade with the efficiency and flexibility. Extended feature set will let you emulate even the most intricate communication schemes within each user session. The ability to run distributed tests will let you verify the performance of the high-end web solutions with up to 1M concurrent users. You can further utilize the integration capabilities of WAPT Pro to perform the regression testing within your DevOps environment.

Here is the list of the main benefits of the Pro version over the regular one.


Scalability
You are not limited by a single system for the load generation. Test execution is fully managed from the workplace component, while the emulation is performed by load agents. The number of attached agents is virtually unlimited, meaning that you can increase the test volume up to any required capacity.

Cloud-ready solution
Not only load agents, but the workplace component itself can be run in a virtual system or in the cloud. Agents can be managed remotely even if they are in a different network from the workplace. New agents can be attached at a click.

Server and database monitoring
You can setup a direct monitoring of the performance parameters, such as CPU, RAM or network usage and hundreds other counters. WAPT Pro will receive the data directly from the servers running the application being tested. SNMP, WMI, ODBC and Apache interfaces are supported. Predefined set of counters is provided for Apache, IIS, MS SQL, MySQL and Oracle servers.

JavaScript-enabled data processing
When testing enterprise applications and feature-rich websites, you may face a situation when it is not possible to fully emulate the client functionality without executing parts of its JavaScript code. In WAPT Pro you can insert scripts between any two steps of the user session. The code has access to the server response data and can modify the values of internal variables conveying the result of the processing to the subsequent session steps.

Extended test results
WAPT Pro lets you implement custom procedures for the analysis of the test results. You can calculate performance parameters most important for your particular application. If you need even further refinement and more thorough exploration with third party tools, WAPT Pro can output the response time statistics on each and every executed request to the external data files.

Agile / DevOps integration
WAPT Pro can be used inside any continuous integration environment. Its command line interface lets you setup test executions triggered from outside and customize the output of the results. A special plugin is provided for smooth integration with Jenkins.
