Performance-tests applications running on Windows, Linux and UNIX operating systems.

Facilitates every aspect of effective system performance testing: Planning

 * Test design
 * Automated and manual creation of performance test suites
 * Execution against varied configurations
 * Reporting and analysis

Allows the reuse of test scripts developed for load testing in performance monitoring with IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Transaction Performance.

Scales the tests from 50 to thousands of users, called Virtual Testers, so that real-life user loads can be tested. Ships with 50 Virtual Testers.

Enables IT teams to adjust system configurations before the software is released to end-users.
