I'm hunting around for a tool to test web based apps.. There are a LOT of options would like to get some opinions/experience folks have had with different tools. The core requirements are:

2- the scripted tests must run on both unix and windoze.

Almost none of the commercial products support the GUI on UNIX. The most you'll get is some remote playback simulation code will run on UNIX in the context of a load test.

4- have a record mode.

I don't know of any open source projects that record very well since they're almost all programmer oriented. Most commercial products do record, but then you don't get the cross platform capability.

5- have load test capability

Functional testing and load testing in my experience can't be done with the same program since the requirements are so different. The best you will get is a suite of two programs, one to do the functional testing and another to do the load testing. I don't know of any of the open source functional testing programs that can also do load testing, and none of the load testing projects are suitable for functional testing as far as I know.
