Web Performance Testing

The document discusses best practices for performance testing. It provides an overview of the typical performance testing process, including defining goals, planning tests, scripting tests, executing tests, analyzing results, and delivering findings. It also discusses considerations for choosing testing tools and resources as well as common pitfalls to avoid, such as not testing, poor planning, relying on customers to find issues, using the wrong tools, and failing to properly isolate variables.

The document provides an overview of a company called SOASTA and their cloud testing solution. It discusses SOASTA being the first cloud testing company established in 2007 and how their cloudtest solution allows customers to perform load and performance testing in the cloud in a fast, affordable and scalable way. Key features of cloudtest mentioned are on-demand test provisioning, real-time analytics dashboards, and full test reports.

Moving to the cloud is a smarter way to get better and faster service at less price. And, this is only possible once all the boxes in the checklists mentioned in this article have been crossed and you follow the steps of each testing area correctly. Testing the objectives/validations and approaches that were mentioned in the above cloud assessment checklist could be quite tough. Our best bet is to work with a team that has done cloud migration testing before, many times.

This document discusses how to fit performance testing into DevOps environments. It recommends adopting best practices like shifting performance testing left to earlier stages, conducting continuous performance validation as part of continuous delivery, automating what can be automated while accelerating other tests, and ensuring collaboration between performance engineers and DevOps teams. The presentation provides an example of how a performance testing tool can integrate into a DevOps toolchain at different stages like build, deploy, test and release. It emphasizes the importance of performance testing for software quality in fast-paced DevOps environments.

This document provides an overview of cloud computing and testing in the cloud. It discusses key aspects of cloud computing including pay-per-use models, virtual server pools, and various cloud deployment models. It then covers cloud service level agreements and their technical and commercial terms. The document outlines different strategies for testing in the cloud including automation, functional testing, and monitoring. It also discusses challenges like security and reliability and how defects are tracked. Overall the document is providing guidance on testing applications and infrastructure deployed in cloud environments.

This document discusses challenges with automated testing and test data management. It introduces service virtualization as a solution to address problems related to lack of environments, slow integration cycles, and unintended consequences of changes. The document also summarizes CA LISA's test automation and data management capabilities like functional testing, mobile testing, continuous validation, and test data warehousing to help improve testing practices.

Test Automation is becomming a MUST in software development life cycle now. DevOps has been an emerging trend, and it's no longer new. Remebering the old days, when you have to stand-up the test servers, get the builds from developers, deploy it, start-up agent machines, run your tests, collect reports, shutdown all resources you have just started, and spend days to analyze the failures. Now it's time to bring DevOps into this game and let it streamline all of these processes then you can save your days for other greater jobs of software testing.
