Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone has any tips or suggestion about using Ruby/Watir to stress test a web application.
 
I'm trying to run pretty basic load test on one of our servers, it's really simple, just a simple access to a single webpage and then that's it. I'm using the code
 
ie = Watir::IE.new()
ie.goto(page)
ie.close()
 
I'm wondering what is the best way to create thousands (more than 25K) of these processes and have them all storm the server at once. I've tried the approach of creating a shell script that just calls the ruby script multiple times I found out that though it works, it's does not generate enough traffic for my needs.
 
Is there a more efficient way to be doing this?
 
Thanks for your help
