RadView Software's WebLoad Provides Unprecedented

Testing Capabilities for Enhydra 3.5

Lutris Technologies, a leading open source enterprise software and services company, today announced an agreement with RadView(TM) Software Ltd., a leading provider of Internet infrastructure solutions that facilitate and accelerate the successful implementation of high-performance e-business applications, to integrate and distribute RadView's WebLoad(TM) 4.5 with Lutris Enhydra 3.5. Available through online order, Lutris Enhydra 3.5 is the first application server to integrate load testing capabilities into its application server software.

This agreement provides developers with a complete package for automating the performance, scalability, functionality, and regression testing of their wired and wireless applications developed with Lutris Enhydra 3.5. Enhydra users such as independent software vendors (ISVs), system integrators (SIs) and corporate IT developers recognize that their brand and Internet applications are tightly entwined, and they can now rely on the comprehensive testing and analysis capabilities of WebLoad to eliminate risks in their application deployment. Enhydra 3.5 also incorporates multiple WebLoad test scripts for the sample applications included in the product, which illustrate the integration between the products and give developers a fast path to authoring custom load testing scripts for their own Enhydra applications.

"Because of WebLoad's flexibility and support for wireless technologies, we felt it was the clear choice to bundle with Enhydra 3.5 to enable developers to build quality, highly scaleable applications with shortened development cycles," explained Keith Bigelow, director of product management at Lutris Technologies. "WebLoad helps Lutris Enhydra 3.5 easily support the testing of multi-channel Enhydra Internet applications, both wired and wireless, which scale quite differently and need thorough testing to ensure successful deployment."

"Lutris understands that the ability to quickly identify and resolve issues earlier in the development lifecycle contributes to the successful deployment of Internet applications," said Phil Hollows, vice president of technology at RadView Software. "We're pleased to be working with Lutris to not only improve the performance of Enhydra 3.5, but also to provide developers with an unprecedented testing platform that specifically meets the unique needs of wired and wireless Internet applications."
