How to load test an ASP.NET Development Server hosted web application?

Question

I tried Siege but it runs on linux, and the ASP.NET Development Server doesn't accept external connections.

I tried Web Application Stress Tool but I don't know how to specify the port, since I don't use :80 and it doesn't accept this syntax.

Is there a reason you can't change your Dev Server to run on port 80? — JoshJordan

I never configured its port, It always choose the port automatically, I don't know how to configure it yet, but you may have pointed a solution — Jader Dias

The Badboy Software will allow you to do load testing of any web application - it works with both local and remote servers.

Keep in mind that the way ASP .NET Development Server handles connections you will not get a valid test result. It is designed to only accept connections from a local source and a very limited number of them at that (i think 2 or slightly more)

The load test should be performed on identical or very similar hardware to what is on production.
