Abstract
Systems and methodologies are provided for load testing a server wherein user characteristics are adjusted dynamically during the testing period of the server, based upon weightings defined in a user profile. Such dynamic adjustment enables a distribution of user characteristics as a percentage of total requests, (e.g. a per iteration model). The user characteristics can include type of user activities on a web page (e.g. search, browse, check out), browser features (e.g. browser type, browser version) net work connections, various client/server hard ware/software configurations and the like.
