Abstract
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for a computer implemented configurable stresser for testing a server computer. A server computer is tested by transmitting commands to the server computer from a client computer which is connected via a network. Each command is performed by the server computer to access data from a data source stored on a data storage device connected to the server computer. In particular, at the client computer, one or more virtual browsers are created for transmitting commands to the server computer. Compared test results are received from each virtual browser indicating a response to each transmitted command received from the server computer. The received test results are consolidated into a report of compared test results.
