Using load runner tool

Hi, Using load runner tool we can test only server? right.

Hi Balaji,

It is true that whenever we perform Load Testing, we measure bottlenecks or Resource counters at Server side to a maximum extent. This is so because we are interested in the Response times generated by the Server.

We could be measuring responses or checking bottlenecks across App Servers, WebServers as well as DB Server.

But we could also measure Client Side counters like checking - Disk Space, Memory Utilization at Client End. This would give an idea about whether your Load Generator or Agent would need higher configurations to simulate better load.

So, what and where we measure is dependent on the Requirement but to a large Extent we generally measure Variables at Server side.

Cheers..

Hi, guys thank you for your reply.

Here is my scenario, that i want to test both server and client side application.

To test server side, i installed load generator in one pc and controller in another pc.

my doubt is that whether i can test client application by using QTP in controller or load generator pc.
