Load Impact launches new web development tool.

 

STOCKHOLM, Sweden - September 21st, 2009 - The team behind LoadImpact., one of the fastest growing online services for web site load testing has launched an additional tool on their web site. A Web Page Analyzer.

"A large part of our users are web developers, using our service to test and optimize their web code. They need tools to help them do this, and while Load Impact may be an excellent tool to help show how web performance changes with changing load, we felt that it lacked some features to help web developers really debug their web pages." explains Load Impact CEO Ragnar Lonn.

The basic idea is pretty simple; You enter the address of a web page, and the Page Analyzer loads the page as if it was a web browser. Then it shows you what objects were loaded, in what order, and how long each object took to load. It also gives you information about return codes, compression ratio, etc. and provides some general statistics about the page in a summary at the end.

Unlike any other analyzer, the Load Impact Page Analyzer does not just load a web page. It also makes a pretty good effort at emulating different browsers when it loads things.The browser emulation settings control this functionality. You can configure the Page Analyzer to emulate a whole range of different browsers/clients, including search engine bots/crawlers such as Googlebot.

The emulation modifies the HTTP-User-Agent header to mimic a certain browser/client, of course, but it doesn't stop at just doing that. It also emulates a lot of other parameters that vary between browsers and which may affect performance.

"Existing analyzers out there were not very detailed, not very well documented, did not look so good or were lacking in features. We felt we could make something better, and we also wanted to be able to integrate the analyzer with our load testing platform in the future, so that load testing configuration settings can be used when analyzing pages, and vice versa." continues Ragnar Lönn.

The Load Impact Web page analyzer is available online and free to use at:
