Abstract
The number of e-Business system users, both cumulative and potential, is incalculable. In particular, the number of transactions that is likely to concentrate on the B2C system is virtually impossible to estimate. Load testing examines such concentration of transactions in the form of "loads". While the enormous numbers of transactions are actually loaded using software, many test cases do not proceed smoothly as planned. Reasons vary from the difference in how one views load testing, the method of setting the appropriate timing for the testing, to limitations in testing tools. This article proposes ten conditions for the success of load testing by suggesting solutions for ten anti patterns.
