Overview
Uplatz offers comprehensive training on Performance Testing with LoadRunner. This is online video-based training course. You will be awarded Course Completion Certificate at the end of the course.
Performance Testing is a type of software testing that is used to measure the speed, responsiveness, stability, scalability, and reliability of an application or system under various load conditions. The goal of performance testing is to identify performance bottlenecks and areas for improvement, and to ensure that the application or system can meet performance requirements.
There are several types of performance testing, including:
Load testing - This involves testing the application under normal and peak load conditions to determine how it performs under heavy usage.
Stress testing - This involves testing the application under extreme load conditions to determine how it handles unexpected traffic spikes and to identify its breaking point.
Endurance testing - This involves testing the application under continuous load conditions to determine how it performs over an extended period of time.
Spike testing - This involves testing the application under sudden and extreme load conditions to determine how it handles unexpected traffic spikes.
Capacity testing - This involves testing the application to determine its maximum capacity and to ensure that it can handle the expected number of users.
Performance testing can be conducted using various tools and techniques, such as load generators, monitoring tools, profiling tools, and performance testing frameworks. The results of performance testing can help developers and testers to identify performance issues and optimize the application or system for better performance.
There are several performance testing tools available in the market that can be used to conduct performance testing. Here are some of the most popular performance testing tools:
Apache JMeter - Apache JMeter is an open-source performance testing tool that can be used to test the performance of web applications, web services, and FTP servers. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, JDBC, SOAP, and LDAP.
LoadRunner - LoadRunner is a performance testing tool that is widely used for testing the performance of enterprise applications. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and SMTP, and can simulate thousands of virtual users.
Gatling - Gatling is an open-source performance testing tool that is designed for testing the performance of web applications. It supports HTTP, WebSocket, and JMS protocols and can simulate thousands of virtual users.
Selenium - Selenium is a popular open-source automated testing tool that can also be used for performance testing. It supports multiple browsers and can be used to test the performance of web applications.
NeoLoad - NeoLoad is a performance testing tool that can be used to test the performance of web and mobile applications. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSocket, and can simulate thousands of virtual users.
AppDynamics - AppDynamics is a performance testing tool that can be used to monitor the performance of applications in real-time. It supports multiple platforms and can provide deep insights into application performance issues.
BlazeMeter - BlazeMeter is a cloud-based performance testing tool that can be used to test the performance of web and mobile applications. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSocket, and can simulate thousands of virtual users.
These are just a few examples of the many performance testing tools available in the market. The choice of tool depends on the specific needs and requirements of the project.
