LOAD AND PERFORMANCE TESTING

LOAD AND PERFORMANCE TESTING:

In today's digital age, the performance of your software and applications can make or break your business. Load and Performance Testing is your gateway to ensuring that your systems not only meet but exceed user expectations.

Load testing
testing involves simulating real-world user loads and interactions to assess how well an application or system performs under expected usage conditions. The main objectives of load testing are to determine the application's response time, throughput, and resource utilization as the user load increases. Key aspects of load testing include:

   Emulating concurrent users accessing the application.

   Generating virtual user traffic to simulate user interactions.

   Measuring response times and latency.

   Identifying performance bottlenecks under specific loads.

   Assessing how the application scales as the load increases.

   Ensuring that the system can handle the expected number of users without crashing or becoming unresponsive

Performance testing
focuses on evaluating the application's overall performance and responsiveness under various conditions, including both normal and extreme scenarios. The main objective is to measure how well the system meets performance requirements and to identify potential areas for improvement. Key aspects of performance testing include:

   Evaluating the application's response time under different user loads.

   Assessing the application's stability and scalability.

   Measuring the system's resource usage, such as CPU, memory, and network bandwidth.

   Identifying and analysing performance bottlenecks and inefficiencies.

   Benchmarking the application against performance requirements and industry standards.

   Monitoring the system's performance during extended periods to identify any degradation over time.
