Gallop Performance Testing - Greater Coverage With Colocated Testing
Performance is the ultimate benchmark that demonstrates the quality of the software. It not only reflects a healthy computing environment but demonstrates a vigorous commitment to the end users/customers. It is the performance that translates technology investments, applications and IT initiatives into business drivers.
Let us look at performance as a quality that needs to be revived and rejuvenated constantly. Regardless of the phase of the #SDLC, performance remains on top of the priority list of the corporate commitments that strengthen the business environment.
The new requirements brought on by enterprise mobility, social models and Big Data manifest into formidable challenges across performance parameters of Concurrency, Thoroughput, Server response times and Render response times etc.
Performance is an outcome of collective factors spanning across technology, infrastructure and process. How is it measured in a business environment supported by a complex computing system?
Well, an inclusive #performancetesting strategy that is scalable to incorporate emerging requirements and flexible to adapt to changing technology landscape. This is much beyond deploying a tool to assess performance or identify bottlenecks. The long term solution lies in understanding the performance flow across the components of the IT system that supports the environment. It is also crucial to map this performance flow across the interaction with people (End uses, developers, marketing teams, business analysts etc.)
This brings us to the next question, what does it take to ensure application performance which captivates the end user, helps the business run its processes efficiently and makes better use of technology?
The answer lies in a combination of #Colocation #testing, comprehensive tool metrics and contextual reporting. The capability to test load, spike, soak, isolation, configuration needs to be assessed against projected bench marks across business environments and technology stacks is essential to ensure a rapid and comprehensive testing service that not only strengthens the software but also adds long term value. Tool matrix is an area which leverages commercial, open source and patented tools to execute tests with high levels of #QA visibility. Contextual reporting makes performance testing an inherent part of the business strategy and streamlines the flow of tests, status and updates across the formation of the stakeholders and decision makers.
With the arrival and adoption of a new breed of mobile devices, simulation of user interactions and test scenario generation, collection of metrics continues to become an enormous challenge. In addition, the configuration of test environment, deployment of server instrumentation and test data base creation require dedicated investments in #performancetesting along with the testers with cross vertical experience.
Being a pure play #testing enterprise, Gallop brings the power of colocated services with the expertise of a decade of #softwaretesting experience. With superior test capabilities, flexible engagement models and comprehensive #testingservice offerings, GallopâEUR(TM)s #agiletesting helps clients ensure a faster time to market with high levels of #softwarequalityassurance.
