WAPT (Web Application Performance Testing) is a load and stress testing tool designed to assess the performance and reliability of web applications, websites, and APIs. It is widely used to simulate virtual user activity and measure system performance under various loads, helping developers and QA teams identify bottlenecks and optimize applications for scalability.
Key Features of WAPT
- User-Friendly Interface:
- Intuitive UI that allows users to create, execute, and analyze test scenarios without requiring advanced scripting knowledge.
- Test Scenario Design:
- Record user sessions directly from the browser to create test scenarios.
- Customize scenarios with parameters, cookies, and dynamic data.
- Load Testing:
- Simulates thousands of virtual users to test application behavior under different loads.
- Tests various user scenarios simultaneously.
- Stress Testing:
- Pushes the application to its limits to identify potential failure points and bottlenecks.
- Support for Protocols:
- Supports HTTP, HTTPS, SOAP, REST APIs, WebSocket, and more.
- Compatible with mobile and desktop web applications.
- Integration:
- Works seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines for automated performance testing.
- Can integrate with monitoring tools for real-time analysis.
- Detailed Reporting:
- Provides comprehensive reports with metrics such as response times, error rates, throughput, and resource utilization.
- Visualizations include graphs and charts for easy interpretation of results.
- Scalability:
- Test small-scale applications or large enterprise-level systems by adjusting the number of virtual users.
