    I have go through this site, its good for technical questions, but what I have observed is, I can’t find the answers for some topics let’s say winrunner, loadrunner etc…and also i have found that the number of quesions has been decreased suddenly in each topics.
    Can you tell me the reason for that and where can I find the answers for those quesions which are not ‘answered’ on this website.

    Thanks

    (A) After running the test,test summary report will help you to analyze the test results .and test summary report gives you how your website performs .for understandng the scalability of your webapplication .you would have to find the “frustation coefficient “and “abondonment predicition”
    in HTML report you will also get the

    Try JMeter which is free source for Load Testing. This is really very good open source load testing tool . which is having full coverage of different types of load testing.
