Stress Testing Using Forms Authentication

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a web site that ASP.NET that I am trying to stress test under a
number of different scenarios. This site uses forms authentication and each
user of the system cannot be logged in more than once (generates login
failure message).

I would like to be able to setup ACT with 20 users, 20 simultaneous browser
connections and have each instance login as one of my 20 unique users. Is
this possible?

Many Thanks,

Glenn.

Yes, you can add usernames and passwords to ACT to represent users,
and Test.GetNextUser in the script to make sure the script is always
using the next user from the collection. There are some more tips in
this document:
