Usage of HP Load Runner 11 for SAP performance tests

[Former Member]

Hello!

We are very interested to use HP Load Runner 11 within our SAP landscape to execute performance tests for SAP applications?

According to some SAP notes 1537737 and 1539762 this tool can be downloaded.

On the other hand we have heared that for the usage of HP Load Runner the extra license costs have to be paid.

1) Cane some one clarify the licensing procedure of HP Load Runner?

2) Is there a HP Load Runner <--> SAP Solution Manager 7.1 integration planned?

Thank you!

You can download Trail version of Loadrunner from HP site. That's true. all HP testing tools products are license based.

i) If you want to use for SAP applications, you need to have SAP protocals (SAP GUI and SAP WEB). So how this licenses works is, if you want to buy 50 Vusers for SAP it cost you around $ 32k and it depends on company discount. so you need to work with HP Sales team to get the quotation then based on no of Vusers and you can procure it.

ii) As for as i know, there is no HP LR integration with Solution Manager.

let me know if you have any questions.
