Even though you asked for Success story I am responding with our unsuccessful story. Not sure if HP Performance Center is new name for HP Load runner. We tried with HP load runner to record actions on remedy itsm 7.6.03 and our load runner folks spent significant amount of time to get this working. One of them been a remedy developer in the past. At the end they said they cannot get it work with remedy because remedy midtier java servlets are not behaving like regular java apps so HP load runner cannot record and repeat instructions. They could record the sequence for login into remedy but not for opening consoles and searching/updating/creating the tickets. I have no way to validate their statement because I have not been a java developer in the past so take it with grain of salt. At the end our management decided that since ITSM is a packaged solution they it should have been load tested by the vendor and there are a few white papers on the results. So we end up doing basic testing with webservices creating/updating entries using soapUI tool. You can automate that in that tool. And wrote some escalations doing the same. And one day we had our call center folks test it with in a 2hr period login and create/update entries, it was kind of training for them too.
