Summary
CT Labs, a highly respected technical evaluator of hardware and
software, has completed a detailed review of eValid.
Here's their Executive Summary:
|
"CT Labs found the eValid product to be a powerful tool for
testing websites. Because each browser instance looks like a
real user and behaves like one, it can test anything that can be
browsed. The ability to use ActiveX controls, easily customize
scripts to look like multiple users, and to do this on a single
machine is impressive."
"CT Labs verified the load created by eValid to be a real server load -- not just downloads off the base web pages as do some competing products. The number of simulated users one can create with eValid is limited only by the memory and CPU of the client machine being used." "Overall, CT Labs found eValid to be powerful, intuitive, and flexible -- users will only need to remember to scale their server resources appropriately to suit their testing density needs." |
