- Hi Rob,
Assuming that we are talking about load test of the web application, the task that you have should be the 'doable' one.
What you will need, is to:
-- create a (login) scenario for one user;
-- generate a set of users and their corresponding passwords (most probably, you'll have to register those users in the tested system after they are generated, but this can be automated using, for example, the TestComplete tool (http://smartbear.com/products/qa-tools/automated-testing-tools/, http://smartbear.com/products/qa-tools/automated-testing-tools/web-ria-testing/web-testing-with-testcomplete/));
-- parameterize the recorded scenario, so it uses the login credentials from the generated set instead of the recorded ones (http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/64798/);
-- create a test that will simulate the recorded scenario for the required number of simultaneous concurrent users.
Video from http://support.smartbear.com/screencasts/loadcomplete might appear to be useful for you as well.
