Marketing description

Enterprise applications are increasingly complex and with Web 2.0 technologies there are many moving parts, which can easily become points of failure if not tested prior to deployment. HPE LoadRunner software is a uniquely comprehensive testing solution for predicting system behavior and performance used by thousands of businesses around the world. It enables an efficient and robust means to verifying that your application's architecture is built for more efficient performance and reliability.
HPE LoadRunner software is the industry standard for performance validation. It helps prevent performance problems by detecting bottlenecks before a system deployment or upgrade. HPE LoadRunner performance testing software helps you test a broad range of applications, including Web 2.0, ERP/CRM, and legacy applications. It also helps you identify and reduce performance bottlenecks and obtain an accurate picture of end-to-end system performance before going live, so you can verify that applications meet specified performance requirements and avoid issues in production.

Key selling points

• Obtain an accurate picture of end-to-end system performance before going live
• Verify that applications meet specified performance requirements
• Identify and reduce performance bottlenecks during the development lifecycle
• Scripting engine scripts for testing production load against applications
• TruClient technology to simplify and accelerate Web 2.0 application scripting
• Measurable and repeatable load generation with system and end-user monitoring
• Powerful analysis to isolate performance bottlenecks
• Integrated HPE Diagnostics to pinpoint root cause of application-level issues

Product features

• Deliver enterprise load generation, monitoring, and diagnostics
  HPE LoadRunner supports performance testing for a wide range of application environments and protocols. HPE LoadRunner has more than 60 non-intrusive monitors tailored for these systems and provides diagnostics for any applications running on J2EE or .NET platforms, which includes Siebel, Oracle, and SAP.
• Reduce scripting time by 80 percent
  HPE LoadRunner can reduce the script-creation process, even to just a few simple mouse clicks. The Click and Script technology lets you record scripts at the user-interface level by clicking on screens for automatic script generation, making the scripting process easier. It automatically captures the most valuable scripting information to create succinct, visually intuitive, and self-explanatory scripts, reducing scripting time and maintenance by an average of 80 percent. These scripts are also easier to maintain, allowing you to look at the scripts, quickly see what is happening in each statement, and focus on the elements to modify for another test.
• Support the application lifecycle
  To enable load testing earlier in the application lifecycle, HPE LoadRunner integrates with the leading J2EE, Microsoft Visual Studio, and Microsoft .NET environments. This integration lets you create HPE LoadRunner scripts directly within the IDE, so developers can participate in the performance testing efforts earlier. During the transition from pre-release to production, you can use HPE LoadRunner scripts within HPE Business Availability Center software to monitor application performance, availability, and service levels in production under real-user workloads.
