"QA/Testing/Performance groups often face the job of qualifying the performance of complex AJAX web applications -- and are expected to do this within severe budget and time constraints. Another major hurdle in validating capacity for an AJAX app is assuring that the performance tests are realistic. The traditional methods of ramping up load, based on HTTP/S simulations, don't always work when asynchronous AJAX applications are involved. This webinar is sponsored by eValid and it will discuss the following: eValid Architecture and Structure: How eValid functional and performance tests work. Functional Testing: How to make live recordings of AJAX applications. Making AJAX Tests LoadTest Safe: How to validate tests for complete synchronization. Creating a Realistic LoadTest Scenario: Using the LoadTest scenario editor to create effective LoadTest control scripts. Running Wide LoadTests: How to launch single and multiple-instance runs "in the cloud". Monitoring and Inte
