Performance Testing Foundational Learning
This workshop is for anyone who wants to learn about software performance testing foundation concepts. Participants are expected to have exposure on Software Development Lifecycle and Software Testing.
Workshop Overview
Performance Testing is a specialized Non-Functional Testing carried out to certify the software system for its Performance, Scalability, Capacity & Availability. Performance Testing is not a luxury anymore & digital business players are already aware of the impact due to bad performance. Hence, the importance of performance analysis has gained exponential growth over the last decade.
No doubt anyone who is part of Software Development Life Cycle, who contributes towards performance assurance of the digital applications directly or indirectly, needs to be aware of the foundational concepts in Performance Testing. As this fast track workshop is designed to highlight the essentials in Performance testing beyond having knowledge in using tools like HP LoadRunner or JMeter, this tool agnostic program would be ideal for every Performance Tester for conducting effective performance tests.
You’ll learn performance testing basics, how to design effective performance test strategy for a 3 tier web application, how to choose & strategize various types of performance tests to meet the business objectives, best practices to run realistic performance tests, relationship that exists between various performance test metrics like Response Time versus Utilization, Think time versus Throughput, etc. followed by tips for effective performance test result analysis.
At the end of this workshop, you will be convinced that performance testing tool should be just used as an enabler to carryout testing. The tool knowledge is valuable but it’s not useful for business unless Performance Testers become aware & implements the foundational concepts learnt in this workshop.
You will receive our key templates, Performance NFR Questionnaire & Performance Test Plan template which can act as a valuable asset to start planning performance testing for your projects.
