One problem I had with it which is a show stopper is that it can't rerun the same test to compare the results if you are using the random selectors in JMeter. The idea is that you want it to randomly select which link to click on and which path to take then record that and retest with the random path. That way when you make a change you can be sure that it is random and that it had a effect or not. I have briefly looked at httperf by HP. Has anyone had any success in using this or other tools? I know there are web apps out there, but I would like a tool we can use internally.
