Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for concurrent workload simulation for application performance testing. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for concurrent workload simulation for application performance testing is provided. The method includes loading a list of recorded workloads for different tasks of a computing application under test in a workload simulator executing in memory by at least one processor of a host computer. The method also includes grouping the recorded workloads by common task in a corresponding block. Finally, the method includes generating loads for simulating performance of the computing application under test from the grouped workloads so as to require serial execution of workloads in a common block in order of appearance in the common block, but to allow concurrent execution of workloads in different blocks.
