Load Testing Using HP LoadRunner 12
This course is designed to teach people in a workshop format how to plan and load test a enterprise web application. The objectives of this course is to make you understand the complete load testing life cycle: Creating scripts to simulate real life workflows, Developing multiuser workload scenario, Running tests on production quality hardware, Analyzing results . Working through a series of self paced video tutorials, you will learn to develop a workable strategy for load testing of an enterprise learning management system.
