    Hi,
    To test a strength of the server I want to generate user load on a website. I would like to have 500 users ata time and check it. Please tell me how to go about that.
    Thanks

    There is plenty of software designed specifically for this and monitoring response time. The issue with this type of testing is that the majority of domestic users have a fairly slow upload speed and so if you are intending to run the test from a PC/ network with an ADSL internet connection it can be difficult to seperate out slow timings caused by a limitation of your internet connection -v- limitations of the site

    Thanks for your reply. Can you please point me to one of such tools. I can test it from fast server so that won't be an issue.
    Thanks

    Team Foundation Server for Visual Studio - you want the tester edition.
