Creating and Editing Load and Web Performance Tests

You can use Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate to create load tests and Web performance tests to perform stress and performance tests on your applications. When you create a load test using the New Load Test Wizard, you can add existing Web performance tests and unit tests to it and customize the test to meet your specific testing or debugging needs. When you create a Web performance test, you record the Web requests in a browser session. The Web requests are presented in the Web Performance Test Editor when the browser session is finished. You can then debug in the Web Performance Test Results Viewer.
