How to use methods/techniques to test the bandwidth usage of a client/server application?
Bandwidth Utilization: Basically at the client-server model you will be most concerned about the bandwidth usage if your application is a web based one. It surely is a part of concern when the throughput and the data transfer comes into the picture. I suggest you to use the Radview’s Webload for the Load and Stress testing tool for the same. Available at the demoware.. you can record the scenarios of the normal user over the variable connection speed and then run it for hours to know about the bandwidth utilisation and the throughput and data trasfer rate, hits per sec, etc… there is a huge list of parameters which can be tested over a n no of combinations.
