how to load test Azure application

Question

Hi,

How to load test  azure application using VSTS?

could you please provide guidelines/pointers/TOOLS to load test azure application?


I tried load testing like we do for Asp.net application but it's asking the server name where it deployed. If i give Cloud url it's not giving any results.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Some time back , I have searched the web for the same problem.
But didn't find any. May be as of now we have to follow the regular procedure. The reason is that we don't know the server name or IP.

Hello, what steps have you performed? Why do you need the server name? I just did a simple test, which worked fine. Below is the steps I performed:

• Create a new Web Test.
• Navigate to my Azure site.
• Record some steps and close the browser to finish the Web Test.
• Create a new Load Test.
• In the "Test Mix" tab of the "New Load Test Wizard", add the previous Web Test to the list.
• Run the Load Test.
• Got the result. Something like:

Test: WebTest1

Scenario: Scenario1

Total: 1,078

Passed: 990

Failed: 88.0

Test/Sec: 18.0

Test Time: 1.29

 

That means among the 1078 requests to my web site, 990 passed and 88 failed.

Doesn't this scenario work for you?

Try using recorded web test macros as units of your load test mix ... and the load tester will see that as any other web site.
