US Patent 11868226 Load test framework

A computer-implemented method and system involve providing a script-driven framework to monitor performance of operations on two or more sets of objects to be executed on a target system in parallel on separate threads according to a test scenario with user-defined language stipulations from a script file, and executing the script file through the framework to implement the test scenario on the target system. The language stipulations include an operation hierarchy for each of the two or more sets of objects and at least one synchronization point corresponding to a point in time at which operations on the separate threads are to be synchronized. The framework can be XML-compliant.
