A load testing system comprises multiple load testing servers that are configured to apply a load to a target web site, or other target server system, remotely over the Internet. Using a web site associated with the system, a business entity can upload information (transactions to be tested, etc.) about a target server system to be tested. The business entity also preferably sets up a staged implementation of the target system. The uploaded information is used to generate and run one or more load tests against the staged system, and the results are stored in a database that is remotely browsable via various online reports and charts. The system includes a controller that permits an operator to assign load testing tasks to specific load testing servers. The controller preferably implements a load balancing algorithm to distribute a load associated with load test execution events among the load testing servers.
