Thanks for that, Shawn. :-) (The reference to the CF411, I mean.) I'll admit I don't really describe or review the tools I list there (just way too many). I do list both free and commercial, and installed and hosted solutions, for load testing.
But I will say that to your need, Ed, you may want to consider the Paessler Web Server Stress tool, which does offer the "recording" feature. Many of the tools do, including free ones. But the Paessler tool, while commercial, does have a free version for 10 users sending each no sooner than every 10 seconds. Admittedly, that's not "a lot of load", but that can send be one request per second over the 10 users, so for many that's better than doing none at all. /charlie From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of shawn gorrell Sent: Wednesday, October 20, 2010 2:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Load testing a ColdFusion server For question 1, refer to Charlie's CF411. It is the best list of tools that you can find in one place, and he can typically discuss any of them (at length;). _____ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, October 20, 2010 2:48:40 PM Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] Load testing a ColdFusion server 1. Can anyone recommend load testing software for ColdFusion? We're running CF 8 on a Windows box. My quick search yielded "OpenDemand for Adobe ColdFusion MX". What I like about this product is that it captures and replays user interactions automatically. So we should be able to crank out scenarios involving our actual applications. 2. No one in our group is a dedicated ColdFusion administrator. I'm looking at a description of a Fig Leaf Software Training course called Administrating ColdFusion 9. The description of the course looks great. Anyone have any experience with Fig Leaf Software CF admin training?
