Web Application Stress Tool

[mak]

Hopefully a simple question: can anybody tell me whether the "Total
Bytes Received" and "Total Bytes Sent" values that are logged in the Web
Application Stress Tools Report are taken in in the context of the
client or the server?

I.e, is it Total bytes receieved by the client or total bytes recieved
by the server?

Many thanks.

Could be kind of both since HOMER is "acting like" a web browser to test your
app. The "browser" is sending the requests and receiving the responses but
WAST (Homer) is measuring what it sends out and gets back.

Ultimately, this tool can only measure from the client end. Provided
everything was successful, you have a record of both ends. If not
successful, the server is likely to have sent bytes not received.
