Moving from Load Runner to Open Source: Increase Performance Test Coverage 10x-100x through shift-left and democratization

Abstract
Have you been wondering about the rise of open-source alternatives to LoadRunner and other
legacy performance tools? Perhaps because of the fact that HPE recently transferred power of
LoadRunner to Micro Focus, now is a perfect time to learn how you can play a leadership role in
this new approach that fits in better with modern software delivery practices. Legacy tool
complexity and licensing forced all performance engineering work to queue up for a trip through
the performance testing Center of Excellence (CoE). That led to bottlenecks and drove newly
forming agile development teams to seek out open source tools to meet their needs. Now,
teams at firms undergoing digital transformations are turning the CoE inside out by doing less
testing themselves and focusing on facilitating the scale-up of this democratized model. This
transition is one of the reasons why CA recently acquired BlazeMeter®, the leader in enterprise-
scale, open source performance test facilitation. In this session you’ll be introduced to the key
concepts that will allow you to make the transition from LoadRunner to JMeter and other open
source tools. You’ll see how a small CoE team can drive a 10x or 100x increase in testing by
handing out logins to self-service tools instead of being a finite resource for test preparation and
execution.
