 I want to stress test the application.

 What tools and methodologies are people currently using?

Chris, I'm sure you'll want ideas from many (including their thoughts on the
tools), but I'll point out that an old site I have (that I still update
occasionally), I have a page of tools related to CF, including a list of
load testing tools. 

http://www.systemanage.com/cff/considering_products.cfm

A popular one in some CF circles is Selenium
(http://www.openqa.org/selenium/), which is open source. John Paul
Ashenfelter, in particular, promotes it often at CF conferences. Sadly, his
site (where I'm sure he offers more thoughts on using the tool) is
temporarily inaccessible. I've let him know.

It doesn't take more than a few concurrent requests to test many aspects
easily missed by no testing at all. For such moderate testing, I have long
preferred myself to use a commercial tool, Paessler Web Server Stress tool,
which offers a free dev edition for up to 10 concurrent users. It's on the
list as well.

Hope that's helpful.

I am just looking at different approaches people use for stress testing
thier apps.

This is a nice one that RB uses - easy to record scripts, run tests  
and report formats are good - not too $$.
