Product Overview
TelQA Test Lite is a Microsoft Windows .NET based testing product which provides a fast, efficient and powerful means of testing the performance of web based applications. Whether your requirements are for a simple ten user test, or for a complex interactive test employing up to 50 simulated users, TelQA Test Lite offers a range of features to provide fast and efficient performance testing.

Powerful Integrated User Interface
TelQA Test Lite combines test creation, management, execution and analysis within a single intuitive User Interface (UI). This approach allows the development and execution of performance tests to be carried out as a sequence of easy to manage steps. Test specific data  is easily accessible through lists and property panels which provide an uncomplicated view of even the most complex tests.

Fast and Efficient Test Development
Creating a performance test with TelQA Test Lite is simple and easy:
  • Use the integrated TelQA Recorder to capture the user interactions between a browser and the target HTTP based application
  • Save the captured interactions as a "script"
  • Modify the captured script to allow it to be replayed as a Virtual User (VU)
  • Create a test which replays a number of VUs, each of which behaves as an independent user
  • Run the test whilst collecting any relevant performance data from the system under test
  • Analyse the results

Download  your evaluation copy of TelQA Test Lite and see how quickly automated performance tests can be developed for your application.


Script Recording and Modelling
TelQA Recorder

Recording Scripts

The TelQA Recorder allows you to focus on the test by keeping the recording stage as simple as possible. Just select the browser type, interact with the target application as a normal user, then close the recorder to save the script to the TelQA Repository.

TelQA Test allows users to capture, create or edit scripts using TelQA SmartScripts . Designed for use by all levels of Testers, TelQA SmartScripts provide an intuative and efficient method of scripting without the need for programming skills.

Manual Script Creation

For specific applications where the HTTP interactions cannot be directly captured, TelQA Test provides facilities for the manual creation of SmartScripts.

Script Modelling

Modifying, or modelling, captured scripts to form VUs is the key to developing automated performance tests. TelQA Test Lite offers comprehensive editing facilities for TelQA SmartScripts. The SmartScript editor provides an easy to use script modelling solution for testers with little or no programming experience.

Test Development

Once you have recorded and modelled one or more scripts, the TelQA Test Lite UI lets you create tests in seconds using our Test Wizard. If you prefer to create your test manually, TelQA Test Lite allows access to all test related properties using the latest .NET controls.

Whichever method you choose, developing tests in TelQA products is always simple and intuitive.


 

Test Execution and Monitoring
Test Monitoring

Running Tests

Tests are controlled through the TelQA Test Lite UI. Once a test is running the TelQA Test Lite UI can be closed. Details of a currently active test are available if the TelQA Test UI is restarted during the test run.

Monitoring Tests

The status of a currently running test is always available within the TelQA Test Lite UI. If additional data is required, TelQA Test Lite includes monitoring facilities which offer a combination of charts and tabular information.

 


Results Analysis and Reporting
TelQA Test Lite Results Analysis

Results Analysis

TelQA Test Lite can be configured to collect and present a wide range of test run results data. Users can select from processed HTTP related data such as Pages Per Second through to details of each indivdual HTTP request. In addition to the HTTP specific data, test run results will also contain data for any performance related data collection specified by the user.

Each result category can be viewed as a chart or as tabular information. Individual results sets can be exported in CSV format.

TelQA Reports

TelQA Test Lite generates reports in Microsoft Word 2007 (.docx) format. Each report contains a test summary along with details of any transactions (user configurable timers applied to groups of pages) or page timers. The report also contains a chart and statisical information for a user configurable selection of data types. An example report (in PDF format) is available here.

 


Test Data Storage - TelQA Test Repositories
Test related data and results are stored within dedicated TelQA Test repositories which are accessed via the TelQA Test Lite UI. Users can create multiple repositories from which they can select any individual repository as the active data source.
