Screencast
Flex support

NeoLoad is the software designed to load test Flex applications that use LiveCycle Data Services ES application services, realistically simulating users and analyzing your servers’ behavior. Thanks to its intuitive interface and advanced wizards, you will quickly be able to start using NeoLoad's exclusive features to:

Test more quickly:
  • Automatic handling of your Flex / LCDS application’s dynamic parameters without the use of scripts.
  • Intuitive analysis of your LCDS servers’ resources, thanks to the pre-configured monitors.
  • Automatically generated reports that identify the critical points and hotspots.
Test more efficiently:
  • Add custom rules to correlate dynamic parameters and handle application’s framework.
  • Debug mode to fine-tune your virtual users in more complex cases.
  • Real-time monitoring of test runs (requests/responses for each V.U.).
  • JavaScript Add-on’s for further customizing scenarios.

LCDS and Flex application loadtest Screencast

The following screencast shows you how you can perform a load test on your Adobe® LiveCycle® Data Services applications with NeoLoad®. Thanks to its Flex applications support, you will see in this 17 minutes movie that the test of an LCDS application, a Support Management Portal, is made easily.

You will discover:

  • how NeoLoad works
  • a short presentation of the Support Management Portal application
  • a record of a test scenario with NeoLoad
  • the parameterization of the recorded scenario
  • the configuration of the server infrastructure monitoring
  • run the load test
  • analysis of the test results
