Abstract

Search engines are used daily anywhere in the world. Although they regularly use updated indexes to run quickly and efficiently, they sometimes fail to keep the user on their page for a long time. As such, it is important that their response time is the lowest possible Therefore, it is essential to understand what load is supported by each search engine by conducting load testing. These tests have the objective of optimizing the performance of the application being tested, thus verifying the maximum amount of data that is processed. In this paper we conduct a comparative analysis of the four most popular web platform assessment tools, Apache JMeter, Apache Flood, The Grinder and Gatling, and elect the best. In the experimental evaluation the search engines used are: Google, Bing, Ask and Aol Search.
