EdgeSight for load testing provides an efficient and cost effective method of server sizing and application load testing for Citrix XenApp environments. Utilizing simple to use record and replay functionality, EdgeSight for Load Testing records a user’s interaction with an application, generating the necessary information to simulate the activity of hundreds or thousands of users, from any location. This data helps XenApp administrators identify performance bottlenecks before applications are delivered to the production environment, and to establish application monitoring baselines based on transaction and system performance. Once created, scripts can be re-used for application regression testing of updates or for comparing performance of new hardware options or configurations.

EdgeSight for Load Testing enables XenApp administrators to:

• Deliver tried and tested application virtualization environments - Simulate thousands of users to identify system bottlenecks or application instability before systems go live
• Reduce costs associated with change management and application regression testing - Reusable scripts simplify before and after comparison following application patches or operating system updates
• Assess new hardware such as 64bit servers - Understand the capcity limits of different hardware types to make informed purchasing decisions
• Perform branch office application performance testing - Create real traffic from remote sites ensuring bandwidth and server resources are available to deliver the best user experience
