In doing so, it helps improve quality through pre-deployment scalability testing that mimics the true end-user experience and reduce the cost of system scalability testing with reusable test scenarios that can emulate a large population of users. It also helps reduce the time to develop performance tests with an easy to use, "no-code" test recording solution and increase the return on investment of your IT infrastructure through automated pre-deployment capacity planning tests

For multi-user Web applications, reliable, efficient performance is a necessity, not a luxury. Even small performance deficiencies and scalability failures can bring business to a halt or cause customers to take their business elsewhere. In order to capture and correct performance problems before deployment, software development and test teams must proactively measure an application's ability to rapidly and accurately support multiple concurrent users. IBM Rational Performance Tester was built to address this need.

Rational Performance Tester helps teams pinpoint system bottlenecks before application deployment by simplifying the creation, execution and results analysis of multi-user performance tests. Tests are recordings of a user's activity within a Web browser; absolutely no programming knowledge is required to understand and modify these tests. Just a few mouse clicks engages a data pooling capability that ensures unique data for each emulated user. Using an intuitive graphical test scheduler, teams can then organize their tests to accurately simulate the different types of users and user activities the application under test will support.

During test execution, while emulating the desired number of concurrent users, Rational Performance Tester generates reports that clearly highlight poorly performing web pages, URLs and transactions. Teams are therefore able to expose performance problems in even the most complex systems, increasing the opportunity for problem capture and repair before the system goes live.
