highly scalable and supports upto 1 million concurrent users.
introduces the concept of On Premise Load Generators to compare the application performance within the network to various other geographical locations.
SLAs can be configured in StormRunner Load during the test execution.
highlights all the transactions that did not meet the SLAs and further drill down is available
StormRunner Load detects any anomalies where the test results are deviated for a specific transaction / geographical location / script / counter to identify the issues real time and further drill down is available
StormRunner Load integrates with monitoring tools like SiteScope
StormRunner Load can also integrate with New Relic and other similar APM tools
HP StormRunner Load does not need any installation or deployment unless you wanted to configure few on premise load generators. Configuring on premise load generators is pretty straight forward.

Additional Information:

Cons

Currently StormRunner Load supports only linear ramp up of the user load and doesn't provide the user load to follow a step incremental load pattern or any other pattern that a performance tester wants to.
StormRunner Load currently supports load generation from only one of the On premise load generators and the user load cannot be distributed to multiple on premise LGs.
There is no provision to simulate network latencies to simulate realistic geographical locations and mobile networks.
StormRunner Load provides only the default reports and there is no provision available currently to generate the custom reports
StormRunner Load expects the LoadRunner scripts that are generated from LR 12.00 and above. Any scripts developed using the older versions are not supported. The work around to overcome this problem is to open the scripts in LR 12.00 or higher and save it again before uploading to StormRunner Load.
The time taken to initialize the test is directly dependent on the number of users to be simulated.

Few remarks on StormRunner

Permalink Submitted by Siteadmin on June 16, 2016 - 22:24.

StormRunner is based on LoadRunner from HPE and it is very good tool compared to the tools from other vendors (those mentioned) because you can really replicate the real user behavior. Scripts are made with VuGen who is very flexible.

Version 1.95

Permalink Submitted by Siteadmin on June 16, 2016 - 22:31.

Version 1.95 include the following issues:

Support for SAP GUI
Integrate StormRunner’s public API into your applications to run an existing StormRunner test and get the test results.
Docker SiteScope integration - Docker measurements are now available for SiteScope monitors.
The following Dynamic Docker monitor types are supported:: Docker and Cluster Swarm
Enhanced Jenkins plugin - The JenkinsStormPlugin.hpi generates an JUnit (xml) file in the workspace folder.
Script labels - Organize scripts in the repository with labels
Enable multiple IP addresses from a cloud load generator - Configure cloud load generators to host multiple IPs to address load balancing and security defense mechanisms.
Support for Rackspace (London) - Distribute VUsers using Rackspace for the London region.
Cloud service
Much cheaper than LoadRunner
