Online web page performance testing tool

To test performance of your web application there are several free sites available. Here are few you can try

  • WebPageTest.org: My personal favorite, and used by me. Gives multiple locations, waterfall view of requests and good optimization tips to improve web application performance.
  • PingDom.com: Gives basic tests for free, I don’t like is personally because it can’t handle images which have space in its name, shows these as not found,
  • BrowserMob.com: Provides testing from multiple locations in US and Europe, provides stats for load time, object type breakup etc.

My favorite is webpagetest because its give multiple location in US, China, Europe and tests provides detailed analysis. I includes waterfall requests view, connection view, CPU usage and rendering time etc. Also equipped with forum where you can discuss test results and tips to improve and discuss web application performance.

  1. Hey, You’ve given great information about the tools. As far as i know WebpageTest is a better tool. We always experiment with different tools for our websites, do you think it’s not a good way to change tools and experiment with sites? do you think it really effects our website? please give me reply asap. Thanks!
