Can I send multiple requests at one time using Fid

问题:

Using Fiddler, I want to send multiple requests in one hit, to check the response time from the server, if too many requests are sent at one time. Basically, I want to perform a, kind of, load testing on my service. Is there any way to perform this action? I want to repeat the process of hitting the server, again and again.

In Fiddler, you can repeat a request as many times as you like by hitting SHIFT+R on the selected Web Session. You'll be prompted for a repeat count and then Fiddler will issue the specified number of requests.

Caveat: Having said that, generally speaking, you'd want to use a tool like Telerik Test Studio's Load Test tool for a task like this. Alternatively, you could use Fiddler's Export architecture to generate a script for VS WebTest or Microsoft's free WCAT tool and use those tools to generate the load. You can then run these scripts on multiple machines from multiple networks and generate a more-realistic set of load than you could by simply running on a single client.

I've been load testing with StresStimulus today. Overall, I'm quite impressed.

It's now a standalone application (it used to be a fiddler extension). There's a 7 day free trial which allows up to 50 virtual users. Also, the setup wizard is great for beginners.

For basic load testing the trial should be fine. Consider upgrading for extensive/professional use.
