You can run load tests from a developer machine, but you usually can't generate enough traffic to really see how the application responds. In order to simulate a lot of users, you'll set up what is known as a Load Test Rig. A test rig is made up of a Test Controller machine an...
Load testing is a good way to see how your site is able to handle requests from visitors. But stress testing can help identify the breaking point, where it is no longer able to respond within a reasonable time. This can be an important tool when benchmarking your website in order to de...
