You can’t always be a professional software organization without functional testing. that doesn’t mean it’s the only kind of testing you need to do. In fact, you should be doing a lot of other different kinds of testing if you want to hav...
What do you do when you need to test the performance of an asynchronous application? What if the application is not easily observable in a standard input/output or request/response interaction? Performance testing asynchronous applications can be tricky, bu...
Lets examine performance testing for ephemeral applications; those that are loaded, executed and destroyed dynamically, used only when needed. The article focuses on performance testing virtual machines and container in an orchestrated, cloud environment. P...
Unit testing is important. Performance testing is important. You’ll get little argument from the people with boots on the ground, actually doing software development, that these tests matter a lot.Let’s explore techniques for planning and implem...
Describes the characteristics of various approaches to performance testing. Examines performance testing based on measuring CPU utilization, network latency, code efficiency and data transformation. Also discusses considerations when creating performance te...
