Course information

HPE LoadRunner:  is a performance testing tool from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. It is used to test applications, measuring system behaviour and performance under user load. HPE Load Runner can simulate thousands of users concurrently, thus applying load on the Application Under Test, and later analysing the performance.

LoadRunner was pioneered by mercury in 1999 as a performance test tool. HPE later acquired LoadRunner in 2006. In 2016 LoadRunner was acquired by microfocus. LoadRunner supports various development tools, technologies, and communication protocols. It is the only tool in the market that can support many protocols for conducting performance testing.

Any performance testing tool (or for that matter any other automation tool) should be used on a case-to-case basis, depending upon the requirements, client budget etc.

LoadRunner is pioneer tool in Performance Testing area and market. It is believed that, LoadRunner has about 85% market share in Performance Testing industry. This course is specifically generated to enable students gain a hands-on experience of HPE LoadRunner and its unique features using Version 12.5. This class is geared to make you a Loadrunner Specialist This course focuses on helping students create powerful Test Scenario to apply load the AUT. Also helps in creating Vuser Scripts which will simulate the real time user actions

LoadRunner is also an industry leader in the performance testing paradigm and is not only an innovator in performance analysis. LoadRunner has a market share of around 85 per cent in the performance testing business in a recent assessment. LoadRunner supports RIA, Web 2.0 (HTTP/HTML, Ajax, Flex and Silverlight, etc.), Mobile, SAP, Oracle, MSSQL Server, Citrix, RTE, Mail and above all, Windows Socket. Windows Sockets are available on a large number of different sites. No competition platform on the market can deliver too

Overview:
HP LoadRunner is a software testing tool from Hewlett-Packard. It is used to test applications, measuring system behavior & performance under load. HP acquired LoadRunner as part of its acquisition of Mercury Interactive in November 2006.
HP LoadRunner can simulate thousands of users concurrently using application software, recording and later analyzing the performance of key components of the application.
LoadRunner simulates user activity by generating messages between application components or by simulating interactions with the user interface such as key presses or mouse movements. The messages/interactions to be generated are stored in scripts. LoadRunner can generate the scripts by recording them, such as logging HTTP requests between a client web browser and an application’s web server.
