How does KITE differ from other tools such as sniffers, HTTP analyzers, DOM inspectors, and others?
KITE not only provides similar functions to a sniffer or HTTP analyzer, but also lets you record a Web transaction and save the transaction script file for future playback. KITE scripts can be modified if necessary, and KITE provides many advanced scripting tools to meet special requirements. KITE scripts can be played back on demand. Each time the script is run, KITE will measure and display performance metrics for all pages in your transaction. This provides a clear way to see the impact of variations in performance over time. Another major advantage of KITE is that KITE scripts can be provisioned on Keynote Global Test and Measurement Network and run from six global cities for FREE. This gives user a critical outside-the-firewall perspective that helps pinpoint Web components to fine tune during the construction of the Web application.
