Loadster is a cloud-hybrid solution for distributed load testing of web applications, web services, and static websites from either side of the firewall. Records test scripts in an ordinary web browser and tweak them in the graphical script editor. Then, build test scenarios to simulate hundreds or even thousands of concurrent virtual users executing the scripts. Run the test and watch the live dashboard to see how the application is performing. Once finished, export the results to an HTML report with graphs and tables. This helps to benchmark the application's performance, find problem areas, and validate the application is production-ready.
