WAPT Cloud Engine is a load generating unit for WAPT Cloud and WAPT Pro load testing tools. These solutions provide an easy-to-use and cost-effective way to test any web site, including business applications, mobile sites, web portals, ecommerce solutions, etc.

WAPT Cloud instance lets you record and design tests, manage test execution and analyze the results. It also lets you run smoke tests with up to 250 virtual users. However if you need a higher test volume, you should use additional Cloud Engine instances for this purpose.

You can add a new Cloud Engine to your testing environment very easily. Just launch a new instance and add its IP address to the list of engines inside the WAPT Cloud workplace (on the Load Engines page in the product GUI). You do not need to connect to the engine with the Remote Desktop unless you want to change the default configuration. So, even if you need several engines to run the test, the whole system can be configured in a matter of minutes.

Note: the engine cannot be used as a standalone application. It requires WAPT Cloud or WAPT Pro to manage the test execution.
