Business Challenge

Load Runner has to support windows based application

  • The eProgesa application was developed on Java Applets before 15 years.
  • Due to business growth geographically and increase in number of plasma collection centers, the application had to be tested for performance in order to deliver an optimised performance.
  • The challenge was in setting up the load runner environment to test the applet based application with RSA Security.
  • There were limited resources on the internet to help us on the above as only few applet based applications were tested using Load runner before.

How Avasoft Helped?

Load Testing a Windows applet application

  • Consultation and analysis of the eProgesa application (JAVA Applet based application) was done before doing the load testing which helped CSL to plan for load testing expectations/thresholds.
  • A through load testing plan and strategy was delivered and signed off by CSL.
  • A complete topology of Load Runner environment was designed by AVASOFT.
  • Executed load testing of application with 1000 virtual users with maximum of 200 concurrent users on each iteration.

Teck Stack

These are the list of technologies we used.

Value Additions to Customer

Customizable reports to support better root cause analysis.

  • An in-depth analysis of the application to create a load testing strategy and plan.
  • Executed scripts with limited and available licenses.
  • Load testing of all sites were done on time and budget.
  • Customizable reports to quickly identify the problem and pinpoint root cause of the issue.

Business Gain

  • Performance readiness of the existing application to build more plasma collection centers.
  • Identify performance thresholds in terms of responses.

Business Need

  • Load testing of eProgesa application (which is used for CSL Plasma Donation Process) with industry qualified load testing tool “HP Load Runner” for plasma collection centers.
  • Creation of 1000 Donors for the CSL Plasma Donation process with load runner.
  • Load testing of application with 1000 virtual users with maximum of 200 concurrent users on each iteration.
  • HP Load Runner Tool tool with Java over http bundle was used.
