I’ve been playing with benchmarking tools this week. After reviewing the open source options, I ended up working with just a few of the dozens of choices. Some are new and Rails specific. Some are no longer maintained yet remain popular choices. Here’s a sample:
There are not only a lot of tools, there are a variety of approaches to take. Are you looking know how fast your application can return a single user’s transaction? Is a better durability test to know how much traffic your application can sustain over longer periods? Should you test individual pages of the web app or build workflow sequences to more closely simulate real world activity?
For your performance test method, what’s your choice of benchmarking tools?
