Load, Stress and Performance testing tools

JMeter, NeoLoad, LoadRunner, LoadUI, Siege, Gatling.

Load testing

A type of performance testing used to determine a system's behavior under load conditions, allows subjecting a network or application to a work level approaching the limits of its specifications.

LoadRunner

A utility for automated load testing. The program can perform testing of various applications, as well as sites of different levels of complexity. When testing, emulates the parallel operation of a large number of virtual users who perform various actions on different scenarios.

LoadUI

A load testing tool that provides complex load tests and allows to test the performance by dragging the different components, it focuses on flexibility and usability through its visual interface.

Manual testing

Manual testing is a type of Software Testing where Testers manually execute test cases without using any automation tools. Manual Testing is the most primitive of all testing types and helps find bugs in the software system.

Microsoft Test Manager

An extension introduced along with Visual Studio 2010 and Team Foundation Server 2010. It is used to create and organize test plans and test cases, and execute manual tests. 

Mocha

A JavaScript test framework running on Node.js and in the browser. Runs tests serially, mapping uncaught exceptions to the correct test cases. It creates an environment in which we can use our favorite assert libraries.

Mockito

An open source Java-based testing framework used for effective unit testing of Java applications, allows the creation of test double objects (mock objects) in automated unit tests for TDD or BDD.

Monkey testing

A software testing technique where the user tests the application by providing random inputs and checking the behavior. These actions do not require any special skills, but sometimes they help to successfully find even complex bugs.

Negative testing

A method of testing an application or system that is done to ensure the stability of the application. Checks a system for unexpected conditions. Also known as error path testing or failure testing.

NeoLoad

A load and performance testing tool that makes web testing more quickly, efficiently, and frequently, helps to optimize performance of the applications. Its monitoring modules identify performance bottlenecks, allowing to correct them prior to production, thereby enabling to assess the performance and reliability.

Penetration testing

A product or service for an authorized attempt to bypass the means of protecting the information system. The result of the test is a report that can / must contain a list of detected vulnerabilities, used attack vectors, achieved results, recommendations for correction.

Performance testing

Testing, which is conducted to determine how quickly the computer system or part of it under a certain load. It can also serve to verify and confirm other attributes of system quality, such as scalability, reliability and resource consumption.

PhantomJS

A headless (without GUI) browser used for automating web page interaction, providing JavaScript API it enables automated navigation, screenshots, etc, it used to run browser-based unit tests in a headless system.

PHPUnit

A unit testing framework for the PHP that aims to find mistakes in newly committed code quickly asserting that no code regression is in other parts of the code base.
