Businesses around the world are rolling out Web applications to serve their customers more effectively and to make existing business processes more efficient. As the stakes get higher, IT teams are experiencing increased pressure to optimize application performance and reliability. To keep pace with increasing quality demands, automated testing solutions are vital. Yet, many organizations in search of the right tool have an incomplete understanding of how the design of a testing tool will impact the speed of test execution, ease of use and delivered results. This research note examines the subtle differences in the architectures of automated testing tools on the market today. This paper will also take a closer look at how one company -- Empirix -- architected its testing solutions to test Web-centric computing environments and, as a result, has landed itself among the top five enterprise-level solution providers in its market space in just under five short years. Automated test and monitoring solutions pay off in faster application development, lower capital and operating costs, enhanced revenue and satisfied end users.
