Load Test with LoadRunner Controller 9.0 Workshop Series Course

Course Code: MQ 538
Course Abstract:

In this workshop, participants will learn how to design and execute a successful performance test against a web application.  Each topic is supported by hands-on exercises that are based on real-life examples designed to provide you with the knowledge necessary to use the tool efficiently and effectively.  The workshop focuses on Performance / Capacity planning.  Approximately 60% of the workshop is on tool usage.

The goal of the Workshop is to enable participants to use the Application Delivery product for application performance testing according to tried and trusted Best Practices and implement it correctly.  The Workshop will demonstrate common performance testing methodologies and industry accepted best practice to build a performance test of a web application. Upon completion, the participant will be able to take the concepts learned and apply them to any application environment. It does not include planning phase (Performance Test Management workshop), and VuGen Scripting (Performance Testing with VuGen).

Audience: This course is designed for individuals who are Web Application Programmers, Database Administrators, Network Administrators, Performance Test Team Leads, or Performance Test Script Developers.
