Feb 13th, 21:33 UTC
StressMy.com gives web-developers the tools they need to
test their application's scalability and integrity. GAITHERSBURG, MD - February 12, 2001 - Downright Software, a
leading developer and tester of e-business applications, today
announced the launch of its newly developed LAMP (Linux, Apache,
MySql, and Python) based performance testing solution,
StressMy.com.
StressMy.com gives
web-developers the tools they need to test their application's
scalability and integrity. By generating traffic that imitates
hundreds of concurrent virtual visitors, StressMy.com can measure
peak load performance, page download times and page response
times. StressMy.com's inimitable backend test engineering is
distributed and cooperative allowing it to pull and run traffic
from virtually anywhere in the world, thus making StressMy.com
the first application to use peer-to-peer technology in the
testing environment. It is that same exceptional technology that
can detect and report any bottlenecks in a site's application, as
well as report and take action on specified user defined errors.
Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365
days a year, StressMy.com allows its members the access they need to conduct
effective and efficient testing of their web application. A test may be
scheduled to run at any time and results are available within minutes of test
completion.
StressMy.com is a membership-based site that does
not require downloading or installation. Membership is available by purchasing
one of their very affordable tiers of service or by registering for their
complimentary membership that allows future members to "try before they buy" for
as long as they like. The tiers of service are based upon the site traffic a
member chooses to generate, ranging from 2 to 250 concurrent visitors.
StressMy.com plans to offer levels that simulate up to 1,000 concurrent virtual
visitors in the near future and has already begun working on a membership level
that would simulate an unlimited number of concurrent virtual visitors.
StressMy.com's pricing structure is realistic and affordable for any development
budget.
Downright's commitment to providing an affordable
testing solution comes as a response to many colleagues' cries for help. "In an
increasingly volatile tech market, we seized an opportunity to use our knowledge
and skills to help others help themselves," said Joe Griffin, CEO and President
of Downright Software. As a performance consultant to many start-up "dotcoms",
Downright has seen first hand the effects that production costs have on a
fragile, new web-venture. It is for this reason that Downright feels its target
market is web developers and owners of dotcom start-ups with smaller budgets. "A
company will gain in more ways than one by using StressMy.com," says David
Cohen, Vice President and CTO of Downright Software, "By testing your
web-application you gain valuable insight on how to improve your customers' and
potential customers' experience while visiting your site. Broken links and slow
page loading times can impact your e-business profitability dramatically.
StressMy.com can detect and report these problems to you within minutes of
running a test. And, because our product is web-based and easy to use, our
members are saving money on costly software, hardware, installation, and
training. StressMy.com is helping companies increase their profit and reduce
their spending. It doesn't get much better than that."
