Default load testing advice?

Hello,

I am involved in a project which might have large numbers of people
accessing the web site at the same time.

The pages have javascipt code and also involve adidng/taking data
to/from a MySQL database.

Is it possible to load test the site in any way?

Is it necessary to move the web site onto a non-host-sharing server?
These are much more expensive but may be required?

Are there any precautions required with accessing the database? Do you
have to lock tables/records to prevent corruption?

Any advice will be appreciated.

Cheers

Geoff
