QFS and Neotys: new international partnership for load tests of web applications

QF-Test (https://www.qfs.de/en/qf-test/test-automation-with-qf-test.html of QFS) and Neoload (https://www.neotys.com/neoload/overview of Neotys): a tool wedding with the perfect
witness Muth Partners

“Finally – Web load tests from end user’s view”, this is the summary of the advantage of the tool combination of QF-Test and NeoLoad. While QF-Test’s focus is the web graphical user interface, NeoLoad handles with the backend systems and network level.

There is no problem in using regression tests on GUI level created in QF-Test further as load tests for Java applications (with sufficient hardware). The external tools like JMeter generate the load.

Formerly it was difficult to use GUI tests as base for load tests, stress tests or performance tests. In the web area such tests are executed on network protocol level this means without image display within the browser. With Neotys we have found an ideal partner for web load tests.

QF-Test is a complex tool with lots of possibilities as well as NeoLoad. Knowing both tools and the interface for load tests of web applications requires lots of know-how. Muth Partners as a specialist in consulting can assist here.

Muth Partners has worked with QF-Test in many projects, is certified training partner of NeoLoad and has developed a specific interface between these two tools. Hereby existing scripts from QF-Test can be integrated easily in a NeoLoad loadtest. These NeoLoad loadtests with the metric of End User Experience contain new possibilities of analysis. A largely automated import of QF-Test to NeoLoad can take place. Additionally names of sequences and transactions enable recognition and measurement of End User Experience
an expressive evaluation of load tests.
