What is AppLoader?
The Automai Loader is an automated performance testing tool designed to streamline and simplify the testing process for any business process. According to the vendor, it is specifically tailored for small to large enterprises and caters to a wide range of professions and industries, including IT professionals, quality assurance testers, software developers, the financial services industry, and the healthcare industry.
Key Features
Code-free test scenarios: According to the vendor, users can build automated test scenarios without the need for coding. Scripts of workflows can be created in minutes, and the actions are presented in a user-friendly format, allowing for easy editing and logic addition to the scenarios.
Front-end robotic technology: The vendor claims that bots in Automai Loader access applications from the graphical user interface (GUI) on individual desktops, providing a view of application performance. This technology is said to offer freedom from protocol restrictions and flexibility to test custom workflows.
No installation required: According to the vendor, Automai Loader does not require any installation on application servers or virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). Bots act as real users accessing systems through the front-end, enabling testing across any application and framework without the need for APIs or plugins.
Realistic load testing: The vendor states that Automai Loader allows hundreds to thousands of bots to access applications simultaneously, providing realistic load testing. Bots navigate the process in real-time, and screenshots are captured when failures occur. The tool also offers a detailed performance dashboard that includes stats, ramp-up times, and failure screenshots.
User-friendly test scenarios: According to the vendor, Automai Loader measures the response times of each step as experienced by end-users (bots). It allows users to drill down to individual actions and define transactions at any point in the scenario, providing a comprehensive view of performance.
Easy maintenance: The vendor claims that Automai Loader offers easy script maintenance, allowing users to keep scripts up-to-date without difficulty. Images can be retaken or single line actions can be edited as needed. Additionally, scenarios, components, and sections can be reused in other tests, and global changes to scripts can be made for application-wide upgrades and changes.
Unified robotic automation platform: According to the vendor, Automai Loader allows the use of the same scripts for performance testing, functional testing, application monitoring, and robotic process automation. This unified platform is said to streamline testing and automation processes.
