AppLoader - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

AppLoader enables load and performance testing from the user perspective for software quality assurance of even the most complex application environment. The solution tests through all elements of business applications, including all third party apps and Citrix without adding plugins or wrappers. AppLoader replicates front end user activity of up to thousands of users, and includes a code free scenario builder.

AppLoader’s intelligent engine replicates human interaction with applications from all access points including fat, thin clients, and web portals, and provides valuable data about the user experience complete with screenshots of failures. The platform is comprised of 4 modules: the AppLoader Injector, the AppLoader Controller, the AppLoader Reporter, and the ScenarioBuilder.

AppLoader enables users to build any type of scenario without scripting, (including keyboard inputs, mouse events, if conditions, etc.) and replay those actions as an automat. Users can indicate WAIT times to prevent the scenario from proceeding until those same objects appear at playback time, ensuring the script does not get desynchronized even if the application becomes less responsive. For Windows objects without a “handle”, AppLoader provides a way to capture bitmaps around the mouse cursor, so that playback discontinues until the bitmaps appear at playback time.

AppLoader also generates performance reports, charts, and triggers alarms if playback exceeds recording time by a certain percentage. AppLoader not only works as a tool to load stress applications on IT platforms, but is also useful for tracking user satisfaction. Additionally, the platform works with Terminal Services from Microsoft for whenever there is a need to simulate users accessing specific application. Users can set a Terminal Server to host virtual users instead of setting up physical PCs.

This is part of Automai's Robotic Automation Platform. Scenarios created for Performance testing can also be used for regression testing, monitoring, and for RPA (business automation).
