Yesterday I wanted to do some performance testing before we put a new application into production. However when I opened Visual Studio (2017) I couldn’t find the Web performance and load testing tools.
Are there no longer available in VS 2017? Luckily, they still are. But they are not installed out-of-the-box.
Let’s open the Visual Studio installer and fix this:
- Search for Visual Studio Installer and execute it
- Click on More –> Modify
- Go to the Individual components tab, scroll to the Debugging and testing section and select Web performance and load testing tools.
- Click Modify to start the installation
