Counters

Hi,

I am testing one win form application. I have written unit test and i am calling this unit test in my load test to test the web services.

By default VSTS Load test tool gives the details for the following counters.

1. User load

2. through put

3. Response time

are these counters enough? Or should i collect any new counters for this win form application?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Shankar

You should also collect performance counters on the server that is running the web services. You'll probably want to collect IIS and ASP.NET. If the test is using SQL you should also collect SQL counters on the SQL machine.

Ed - I am using Unit tests to push a different protocol (MAPI, as you know) - will I get similar metrics about the driver/client performance as this? (user load, throughput, etc).

How about adding custom counters to a unit test, is that possible?

Hi,

I'm running various load test, testing web services on windows and linux servers (using axis). Adding performance counters from the windows servers works fine, but how could I collect performance data from the java web services running on Linux?

It would be great if I could add the Linux counters directly in the load test counter sets. That way it would be added to the Load Test Result Store (DB) directly. Is there support for SNMP? How could I solve this in any other way?

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated :)
