Re: Automated Performance Load / Testing Tools

I've not used either of these tools.  But I have seen the Benchmarking
Center at IBM in Rochester.  And I know that several companies, like SSA,
have used these facilities to benchmark their products.  Perhaps you could
learn something from them?

A group in my company is reviewing several User Load Generating testing
tools.   The selected tool would primarily be used for performance
analysis, but potentially could be used also for regression testing and
functional testing.  The candidates have been reduced to Loadrunner and
Rational.  Does anyone have any real world experience (positive and
negative!) using these tools in an AS/400 environment?

Thanks in advance,  Bill
