What does WebStone do?
WebStone makes a user-configurable number of HTTP 1.0 GET requests for specific pages on a Web server. Any Web server can be tested, and any HTML content can be used. WebStone measures the throughput and latency of each HTTP transfer. By default, only statistical data are returned, but the user may optionally request data for each and every transaction. WebStone also reports transaction failures, which translate into those little “Connection Refused” alerts in the real world.
