any software/app that simulates user browsing behavior ?

Hi , looking for something to test website.

something that can simulates real-user , I mean , like randomly hit the links that shows or found in the page and randomly hit again the links found in second pages, hit the link few seconds , or few times per minutes , something like that.

I mean something like Apache Bench but except that AB is only doing contentiously concurrent connections on 1 signal link, which isn't exactly what i have in mind...

Have you considered traffic exchange?

Something like that, but I wish something from local client to local server, or. Remote client to remote server, Linux or windows all fine.

I'm not sure I understand it correctly, but quick Googled it, not exactly what I have in mind

But thanks for the hints

Selenium basically automates Firefox browser... maybe that is what you are looking for?

yes, python. You can use CookieJar hooked to proxied urllib2 (via build_opener function) and then use BeautifulSoup to find tags in response (and response values).

I know, library names will make you hungry
