This package (referred to as QVScalabilityTools) contains a complete set of tools for easy creation, execution and analyzing of load/performance tests and regression tests.
QlikView documents to help analyze result and log files(This was previously included in this package):Scalability Results Analyzer
Older versions of the tool can be found here: Tool for easy creation of load/performance tests of QlikView (v.10 and 11)
Tools for Qlik Sense can be found here: Qlik Sense Scalability Tools
Note: Using windows built-in unzip functionality will not allow the .exe to launch unless unblocking zipped package first (properties -> unblock).
Note: Regarding Apache Log4j, reference CVE-2021-44228 (also referred to as Log4Shell), these set of tools are not directly vulnerable to the exploit, however JMeter, the tool required as a separate download, is. How to mitigate the vulnerability for JMeter has been documented here : https://community.qlik.com/t5/Knowledge/Qlik-Scalability-tools-and-log4j/ta-p/1872009
Included parts are:
Version 1.2.7->1.2.8
Changelog 1.2.6->1.2.7
2019-08-26
Documentation updates due to:
- New recommended JMeter version (4.0)
- Changes to the licensing for the Oracle Java implementation (seehttps://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/overview/oracle-jdk-faqs.html)
- Open-source Java Development Kits (JDKs) have been verified for use with JMeter and the QlikView Scalability Tools

Hi Rajesh,
Unfortunately it is hard to tell from that screenshot and log, I suggest you look at the responses of other failing requests in the script (in particular authenticate.aspx). There can be many reasons for failure, but if it is only one failing request, and everything else seems to work then I would not worry. As long as it is not critical for the rest of the script the results from such a test can still be used.
A good way of checking if everything else seems to work is to first of all check so that requests are green and then check so that you can see images and proper data responses ( containing objectid, data etc) from responses.
The scalability tools have no built in support for SSO, so that can be the issue. It could also be something with the headers. So I also advice you to try and access the app using headers (using modify headers or similar plugin for your browser). If that works with a browser without needing to apply credentials in any way then I expect jmeter to work as well.

Hi Daniel,
On page 2 in the User Guide for Analyser, it makes reference to a number of files that need to be moved to the Folder structure.
Other than the JMeter-Log Files which I can see, where do I find these files:
Thanks
Andrew
Hi Andrew,
If you have set up the performancecounters (according to the supplied documentation) they will be stored in c:\perflogs on the server machine.
Session & Event logs are generated from qlikview and will be at C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\QlikViewServer.
/sebastian
Thanks Sebastian. We are using Windows 2003, so couldn’t get the performance counters to work. Subsequently installed Performance Adviser 2003.

I was able to run the tool on my laptop.
Thanks for help

Hi Darius,
We have seen that error before. If you use windows built in unzip functionality you need to unblock the zip file first ((properties -> unblock). Alternatively unzip the package with with another tool (for example 7zip).
That should do it, if not you could try and update to latest .net version.
Cheers

Hi Sebastian
This did the trick. Thank you very much.

Hi,
1- The QVS process sometimes restarts when I run the load test.
2 - The load running is silent(verbose) - how can I view what it actually does?
tnx
Hi Guys,
Other than the JMeter logs and ServerInfo.xml, am I correct in saying that the following Log files should be copied accross for analysis:
1) Qlikview Server: Session + Event logs + Performance Counters
2) Web Server: Only the Performance Counters?
Thanks
Andrew
Hi Andrew,
Those are the correct logs when using the analyzer app provided in the tool
