IBM DevOps Test Performance helps software testing teams test earlier and more frequently by shifting testing left. IBM DevOps Test Performance validates the scalability of web and server applications, identifies the presence and cause of system performance bottlenecks and reduces load testing. Software testing teams can execute performance tests that analyze the impact of load on applications.

Chose IBM DevOps Test Performance
Cost/Licensing: While JMeter is an opensource testing tool from Apache, compared to IBM RPT and HP LoadRunner, RPT is much cheaper than Loadrunner.
Functionality: JMeter provides basic functionalities which are adequate for performance testing, however advanced features are not …
This was the 1st and only Testing Suite we have purchased or used. We did some research before we purchased, and generally all the reviews for the Oracle Testing Suite were good.
OATS doesn’t work for Hyperion or ADF - hence why I am using it as well. OATS is great as it’s a full suite in 1 tool for load, functional automation and Test Mgmt
Oracle Application Testing Suite is much more useful and we work more than Zaptest because it is a life cycle tool that allows us to define and manage your application test process, validate the functionality of the application and ensure that your applications work under load. …
We buy all things ORACLE in order to have a consistent experience and reduce the training and learning curve. We believe in ORACLE Corporation's commitment to quality and innovation and would not consider any other products. We are a large company and saving a few dollars on …
Oracle Applications Testing Suite's main advantage is the published content and flows specific to Oracle applications. In our case that is E-Business Suite. Having pre-built tests that only require tailoring for our unique configurations and extensions is a major advantage over …
Go for IBM RPT if: 1. You're testing a Java-based Web application with HTTP protocol 2. You wanted to distribute the load across machines easily 3. Your team is in learning phase/not really introduced to a wide range of performance testing tools Do not go for IBM RPT if: 1. You wanted to test REST or any other advanced protocols 2. Your system under test demands a very high user load 3. Your application is written in .NET or any other platform except Java.
The Oracle Application [Testing Suite] is used heavily in our organization for independent regions to perform Oracle upgrades. Baseline performance can be monitored before the upgrade and compared to a production query load, we are able to easily monitor server performance and make an accurate prediction of upgrade performance. DBA's are able to use the testing suite for ongoing validation of database performance during peak times.
Memory utilization could have been improved.(Eats up system's RAM)! It may crash if a test is conducted with the heavy load if adequate RAM is not available in the VM/host machine.
Licensing could have been made simpler. IBM's licensing method is difficult to follow.
Support for protocols other than HTTP. Not really up to the current trend.
The application is ideal for places that have already contracted with Oracle, however, OATS is much more expensive than other software available on the market.
The setup and configuration for OATS requires a lot of technical expertise and in depth knowledge.
Cost/Licensing: While JMeter is an opensource testing tool from Apache, compared to IBM RPT and HP LoadRunner, RPT is much cheaper than Loadrunner. Functionality:JMeter provides basic functionalities which are adequate for performance testing, however advanced features are not available (such as load testing with GUI, reporting is very basic etc.). But when it comes to Loadrunner, it offers very broad features and supports a variety of protocols. So in this category, Loadrunner is a winner, but RPT is better than JMeter. Ease of operating:JMeter is easy compared to LoadRunner, but it has old GUI and look and feel is not that great to understand. Also, most of the things are to be done in a command line, non-GUI mode. While LoadRunner is very advanced with many options, which also confusing sometimes. But RPT, on the other hand, maintains a balance between simplicity and offering of different features. So winner: RPT.
We buy all things ORACLE in order to have a consistent experience and reduce the training and learning curve. We believe in ORACLE Corporation's commitment to quality and innovation and would not consider any other products. We are a large company and saving a few dollars on licensing is penny wise but pound foolish as we cannot afford unplanned downtime.
Oracle testing suite had a positive ROI immediately, as our web application downtimes were reduced dramatically after we could do automated regression and load testing.
The learning curve for OpenScript was steep for our team, and we had to spend a lot of work hours training staff and learning the product.
After users were trained properly, we were able to leverage the benefits of the suite immediately.
