The tool extracts all the SQL statements and stored procedure calls from the trace and turns them into a single Visual Studio Unit Test, which can then be configured as a Visual Studio Load Test. The tool does not interact with the database itself when it generates the test code and so it can be used “offline”. Requirements: SQL Server 2005 SDK and the SQL Server...
