Web site stress test using C#

[markmyb]

I need to stress test a company website.

What they need is a utility that can open the website, and select a button on the website, wait for the page to refresh and hit the same button again.
This process will be repeated (n) number of time.

This utility will be distributed to (x) number of people to run on their pc.

Problem is that I have no idea where to start on this.

Can someone please assist me on this?
:confused:

Application Test Center (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/act/htm/actml_main.asp) it comes with Visual Studio .Net

what version of vs is that as I only have vs 2003 pro, and i cannot find ?

I'm looking at the Enterprise Edition so maybe it's not part of the Pro version or it could be that it just does not get installed by default.
Doing a search for stress test tools might turn up a few free ones or shareware versions. I think this is one of the times when coding your own would be more hassle than it's worth.
