Do you want free, open source tools or do you have budget to pay for a commercial tool?
In the past, I've used apache bench (ab on the LTM command line) and shell scripts with curl to do load testing with no license costs. At one company we bought Paessler's Web Stress Tool. It was cheap and provided reasonable functionality and testing capacity. Customers with more money have used Spirent's Avalanche and LoadRunner.
