Recently, we have improved the robustness of web page monitoring in Application Insights, and introduced the ability not to use cookies. Transmission is now more reliable in the face of throttling and network issues, and when a page is about to unload.
When you deploy a new version of your web app, you want to know immediately its effect on performance. Have response times improved or worsened, or is it showing failures?
We released a new Application Insights Labs SDK specifically for monitoring WCF applications. Although Application Insights SDK for .NET Web Applications already supports HTTP-based WCF applications, it has never been optimized for WCF specifics.
Application Insights web tests will ping your application from multiple locations to check availability and then alert you when it is down. In this post I will explain how to automatically deploy a web test.
