Flex Perfomance Testing Tools

Over the past weeks there has been a few good announcements/releases around performance testing for Flex applications.

The first one comes from the LC DS QA Engineers at Adobe and it is the updated Adobe Data Services Stress Testing Framework. This new release has been upgraded to support the current LC DS 2.6 Beta and includes key new features and numerous bug fixes.

Borland is also announcing the release of Silk 2008 oriented towards Web 2.0 testing. Not only they are upgrading SilkPerformer 2008 to support Flex applications (and AJAX), but they are also rebuilding their functional and regression-testing tool (SilkTest 2008) on Adobe Flex.

Last but not least, RadView, is also launching a Flex add-on to their WebLOAD solution with support for both AMF0 and AMF3, server-side statistics for both BlazeDS and LC DS, and many more features.

Add all the above to Flex Builder 3 Professional performance and memory profiler, throw some functional testing via the Flex Automated Testing that also comes with FB 3, and you have all you need to make sure your Flex applications run as expected and fast!!!

AIR + LC DS session assets from onAIR Tour

Last week during the onAIR Train Tour I presented a session on leveraging LCDS/BlazeDS within AIR applications. The slides are located on this link and the client side demos over here.

For the remoting and messaging part you can use either BlazeDS or LC DS. For the DataManagement part you will need LC DS 2.5.

You can download LC DS from www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/dataservices/ and BlazeDS from opensource.adobe.com/blazeds

Let me know if you guys have problems/issues. Enjoy!!!
