Chose Progress Test Studio
Testing features between the different tools we evaluated seemed to be fairly equal but the user interface, using other products within the Progress suite of products, and the cost of Test Studio lead us to our decision.

The product is easy to learn and any customer making web based application will greatly benefit from a product like this and cut down on testing time. As new code builds go out it's an excellent tool for regression testing. The load testing feature has a great benefit as well and lets us test the limits of the application on different platforms and allows us to tweak the certain area and test again.
