IBM Rational Performance Tester is a performance and load testing solution for increasing the scalability of Web applications. Ease of use and in-depth analysis combine in Rational Performance Tester to simplify test creation, load generation, and data collection. This helps you scale your application to thousands of simultaneous users.

Rational Performance Tester identifies system bottlenecks before deployment by simplifying load testing, including creating, running and analyzing the results of multiuser performance tests. Tests are created by recording a user's actions within a Web browser; no knowledge of programming is needed to understand and update tests. A simple to use data pooling feature ensures that each emulated user has unique data. A graphical test scheduler makes it easy to organize tests to accurately simulate the expected application usage.

While multi-user testing is in progress, Rational Performance Tester creates reports that clearly highlight web pages, URLs and transactions that are not performing well. Teams can then identify performance problems in even the most complex systems, improving the chance that problems are found and fixed before the system goes live.
