Marc, Siegfried,

thanks for your answers ... and sorry for posting the same thread two
times, I had problems with my webmail.

I definitely agree with Marc: while it would be hard to turn WebTest
into a complete load testing solution, I think that adding basic load
testing features would make sense and add value to WebTest. Moreover,
it would be very useful in order to avoid to make a duplicate of the
*same test* in *different* tools.

I would do the following:
1) Add load testing capabilities to WebTest, in order to be able to
concurrently test your web application.
2) Integrate WebTest and JMeter, in order to use JMeter reporting
capabilities for WebTest tests.

What do you think?
Cheers,

Sergio B.
