RadView WebLOAD is an enterprise-scale load testing solution that enables your organization to simulate massive user loads and understand how your application, servers, database, and other components behave to identify bottlenecks. The solution allows you to easily and rapidly record sessions and turn them into robust test scripts that you can execute in a variety of realistic runtime scenarios. RadView WebLOAD is capable of generating reliable and real-life load scenarios even for the most complex systems. It supports Windows and Linux OS systems, and is suitable for organizations of all sizes.
RadView WebLOAD Features
RadView WebLOAD has many valuable key features. Some of the most useful ones include:
-
IDE: IDE full form is an integrated development environment that helps users edit and debug load scripts.
-
Load generation: RadView WebLOAD’s load generation feature generates load from on-premise and the cloud.
-
Correlation: RadView WebLOAD offers automatic connection of the dynamic values such as session IDs and allows a script to be executed dynamically with many virtual clients.
-
Analytics: With the solution’s analytics, you gain access to a set of predefined analysis reports that provides performance data.
-
Performance Measurements Manager (PMM): The integrated PMM collects server-side information throughout test runs.
-
Web dashboard: With RadView WebLOAD’s web dashboard, test results can be executed from any web browser.
-
Code-free parameterization: RadView WebLOAD turns recorded values into dynamic parameters, including date, time, input files, random strings, and more. These values are automatically populated at runtime to create richer testing scenarios.
-
Intelligent validation logic: You can define validation criteria, like expected page title, size, and content, in order to validate business transactions. You can also write custom code in JavaScript that can later be reused across your test library.
RadView WebLOAD Benefits
There are many benefits to implementing RadView WebLOAD. Some of the biggest advantages the solution offers include:
-
Easy to get started: RadView WebLOAD’s test development environment combines the ease of recording with the power of JavaScript. To get started, users simply need to navigate through the application using a web browser or a mobile device. WebLOAD captures your actions and automatically translates them into a test script.
-
Realistic load scenarios: RadView WebLOAD gives you the ability to simulate realistic and varied load conditions for an unlimited number of users. By using the load scenarios, you can define a variety of scripts, browsers, network characteristics, and schedules in a single test run. Virtual users have a very small footprint to optimize hardware usage.
-
Actionable intelligence: RadView WebLOAD transforms client and server-side data collected during test execution into actionable intelligence. You can use the data to improve the performance of your application. In addition, RadView WebLOAD provides a comprehensive view of performance at the level of the system, transaction, component, and end user.
-
Mobile recording and playback: You can test your applications in mobile, multi-device environments and can also record directly from the mobile device or from a simulator. During test execution, you can mix different browser types and connection speeds to accurately simulate real conditions.

-
Manage across the enterprise: Collaborate across QA, operations, dev, and business teams to define SLAs and review results. Share test results and manage test infrastructure. Schedule and share resources across teams and apps.
Reviews from Real Users
Tricentis NeoLoad stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Some of these include its price, its user-friendly UX, its API support, and its scalability. PeerSpot users take note of the advantages of these features in their reviews:
Patrik B., Technical Lead at a tech services company, writes, “The licensing cost is very less for NeoLoad. It is user-friendly and easy to understand because they have created so many useful functionalities. When I started working with this tool, we just had to do the initial assessment about whether this tool will be able to support our daily work or not. I could easily understand it.”
A Global Delivery Head at a consultancy firm notes, “The API support is much better with this solution, compared with the competition. Pricing for it is also more affordable than its competitor. We have used Tricentis NeoLoad and we find it scalable.”
