Hi,
It can send POST, based on the static content of a file. (the file
probably must be formatted for that..)
Not too much session support (that would be achieved by supporting
cookies).
Dynamic session, random data... I don't think so..
You need a testing instrument for web applications, dont know if such
thing is available, or how expensive is..
But you can test simple repetitive requests/processings, similar with
those within your application, to get an approximate feedback
of the order of magnitude it is able to scale.
ab's sources are available, you can improve it yourself, or send
your sugestions to its developers.
