DESCRIPTION
Most enterprise application development teams use testing tools like HP LoadRunner to perform user load testing for their applications. This post discusses how you can a build a load testing lab on public cloud like AWS and Google compute where you can on-demand scale up the load generators systems and run tests on replicas of your on-premise enterprise applications.

Performance testing on Ravello
with HP LoadRunner (user load)

• Upload your windows load generator VM image with LoadRunner agent installed and setup multi-VM farm to generate desired user load.
• Add/remove windows systems instantaneously to scale up/down the generated vuser load.
• Only pay for the instances when they are running.
• Save this as a blueprint for reuse.
* You can also upload your LoadRunnercontroller Vm instance image or use the Controller instance on premise.

• Setup your ‘application under test’ environment on Ravello.• Same VMs, same networking as on
premise – no changes whatsoever
• Run the application instance on public cloud.
• Execute load test from windows load generator application in Ravello.• Save the state of the application
instance under duress as a blueprint -> create an instance from this blueprint-> troubleshoot the problem.
• Save the application environment as a Gold Blueprint -> Add components, fix bugs, make changes -> create another application instance from the updated copy -> execute load test again.
