Powered by IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) WebSphere and DB2 Universal Database, OpenLoad V5.0 delivers unmatched ease-of-use, accuracy and scalability enabling developers, testers and administrators to isolate performance bottlenecks and optimize the user experience within minutes. As the industry's next-generation testing solution, OpenLoad V5.0 further distances itself from high-priced and overly complex legacy test tools by offering an unprecedented approach to script auto-correlation for accelerated data parameterization of recorded traffic through its new and improved User Scenario Session Finder. OpenLoad's User Scenario Session Finder is the industry's first intelligent, script-free wizard that allows users to build dynamic data- driven tests without having to code and debug To correct a problem in hardware or software. Debugging software means locating the errors in the source code (the program logic). Debugging hardware means finding errors in the circuit design (logical circuits) or in the physical interconnections of the circuits. , or understand, the inner workings of the applications they are testing. OpenDemand's latest offering also allows users to easily and proactively manage the performance of their critical Web applications from a single browser-based console. This new feature enables users to leverage real-world user scenarios developed for functional and load testing to continually monitor customer transactions and correlate them with their back-end systems to identify and fix problems before they impact Web site visitors. As an added convenience, OpenLoad V5.0 provides the ability to send customized email and pager notifications, allowing users to provide or receive updates on the status of their test even when they are away from the system. Email alerts can be tailored to include a summary of the test results and can optionally be sent only if an error is encountered during the test or only if the test completes successfully. Other new features include extended debugging and auto- functions, including the new "auto sense" function which allows users to collect multiple matches on a single page and reference them from within an array of values. In addition, there is also a new "proxy switcher" module that enables users to easily toggle To alternate back and forth between two states. toggle - To change a bit from whatever state it is in to the other state; to change from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1. This comes from "toggle switches", such as standard light switches, though the word "toggle" actually refers to their OpenLoad Recorder on and off from their browser menu bar without having to manually adjust proxy settings. "At Cardean Learning Group, we are continually enhancing the learning experience for our students and faculty. It is critical that our production environment undergoes extensive quality assurance and load level testing before the software is released for their use. We needed OpenDemand's guidance and support to ensure a smooth implementation of a major release that included integration of our Linux/J2EE learning platform application with a commercial MS Windows-based product. Load testing with Open Demand's core product OpenLoad enabled our Software Development and Infrastructure (SID) team to identify performance problems and reconfigure existing hardware to meet the University's new requirements. Using OpenLoad, we were able to enhance the performance of our applications, and the SID team could sleep well following the release knowing that the product would perform as expected," said Ron Calderone, vice president, Cardean Learning Group.
