CGI Generic Tests Load Estimation (full tests)

info Nessus Plugin ID 56242

Language:

Synopsis

Load estimation for web application tests.

Description

This script computes the maximum number of requests that would be done by the generic web tests, depending on miscellaneous options. It does not perform any test by itself.

It adjusts the mode of each script if it is unable to run in the given time.

The results can be used to estimate the duration of these tests, or the complexity of additional manual tests.

Note that the script does not try to compute this duration based on external factors such as the network and web server loads.
