TestMaker is my open-source utility and framework for testing Web
applications, services, and SOA for scalability, performance and
reliability. TestMaker 4.4 is now available for immediate download.
The release notes and documentation for the new version are available
at:

TestMaker 4.4 incorporates new features and bug fixes from 14
volunteer contributors. The charting capability is completely
changed. TestMaker shows live results when running a load test in
XSTest. All the documentation and example test agent scripts have
been rewritten. A single Ant build script creates all of TestMaker,
including the full distribution. The new software incorporates many
bug fixes: Log4J compatibility, removed unused jar files, fixed HTTP
header value logging, fixed URL encoding problems, and problems
running TestMaker scripts from the command-line.
TestMaker is the framework PushToTest uses to build performance and
developer productivity tests. For instance, the SOA Performance Kit
(http://dev2dev.bea.com/soa/toolkit.html) shows Java developers how
to measure SOA scalability and performance and the FastSOA
Performance Kit (http://www.xquerynow.com/library/fastsoa/) shows how
to accellerate SOA performance using XML-centric technology. Both are
built on TestMaker.
TestMaker provides example test scripts that interoperate with Axis
services using SOAP RPC and SOAP Document-literal encoding.
