Test Authoring and Test Scale
TestMaker Approach Advantages and Disadvantages Scale
Large volume of virtual users per TestNode (1000+
VUs)
Script-level coding effort for Web apps with client-
Protocol Level Testing side business logic 1000+ virtual users per TestNode
Extra coding to test Web page resources (CSS,
Javascript, Images)
Test message-oriented services (BPM, MOM, ESB)
Large volume of virtual users per TestNode (1000+
VUs)
Scriptless test authoring, create HAR files using point-
and-click Firefox with Firebug
HTTP Archive (HAR) Automatic testing of Web page resources (CSS, 1000+ virtual users per TestNode
Javascript, Images)
Does not support Ajax, Javascript functions within
Web pages
Scriptless test authoring using record/playback
HTMLUnit (SeleniumHtmlUnit, Operates client-side business logic automatically
Small volume of virtual users (50 VUs) 20-200 virtual users per TestNode
SahiHtmlUnit) Possibly extra test coding for Javascript
incompatibility
Browser compatibility testing with the same test
Browser Functional (Selenese RC script
Visual test operation for test debugging 2-4 virtual users per TestNode
TestNode or Sahi with Browser) Very small volume of virtual users (2 VUs)
Slow test operation
