FunkLoad

FunkLoad will help developers test their apps and websites in a multitude of environments and situations.

This tool can simulate large traffic loads and then log how the developer's code deals with the aftermath of such high traffic loads and various stress environments.

The subsequent results can be consulted and provide the developing team with invaluable feedback that can help them strengthen their application before launching it into production.

For each FunkLoad test a report is generated, complete with graphics (where possible) so developers can easily detect bottlenecks and problematic points.
