Micro Focus LoadRunner Cloud Features
Micro Focus LoadRunner Cloud has many valuable key features. Some of the most useful ones include:
-
Cloud scalability: LoadRunner Cloud allows you to perform real-time testing with more than five million virtual users from various geographical regions in a matter of minutes. It is built to manage massive scale without the need for additional hardware.
-
Worldwide coverage, no overhead: Micro Focus will handle the management of overhead expenditures and continuous maintenance so you don't have to. Using private clouds, on-premises load generators, or cloud locations like AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform, you may quickly distribute virtual users to other regions. With support for more than 40 cloud regions, worldwide coverage can be achieved in minutes as opposed to days or weeks.
-
Quick testing: LoadRunner Cloud makes it easy to design, create, and run tests. It’s an ideal cloud load-testing solution for your fast-moving agile development process.
-
Simplified test creation: LoadRunner Cloud supports third-party open-source tools like JMeter, Gatling, and Selenium while enabling you to leverage pre-existing scripts written in best-in-class scripting applications like LoadRunner Developer, VuGen, TruClient, and DevWeb. LoadRunner Developer is integrated with LoadRunner Cloud.

Reviews from Real Users
Allan B., Lead Performance Test Engineer at bol.com BV, notes of the product, “The TruClient feature is the most valuable for us. An application with testing can only be scripted using TruClient, so it's part web-based, but it also has its own protocol combined with HTTP and HTML. So many other tools do not recognize this specific proprietary protocol. Using TruClient, we can still create scripts that cover everything that we need to cover.”
Abbasi P., a PeerSpot user who works at a financial services firm, writes, “The record and playback feature is the most valuable feature. It's all driven by the script, so it's a script-based tool where the background tracing starts.”
