I think what you're looking for is ADAM:

Although you do not provide much info on the objectives of the tests

needed of this application, it is likely that using ADAM will not be

what you need as its security model is much different from that of

full AD and as the behaviors under load differ. Since you appear to

need to test an AD security application, specifically for preformance

I find it questionable that using ADAM will give you valid, relevant

results/information.

Have you considered using a virtual environment ? baselining it

without and then with this application? tryinig to figure out how to

put the AD under a realistic, known load during the test?
