Types of performance testing services carried out

With the sudden boost in e-commerce and online services, more or less all businesses and start-ups are using technology in full force, for both their external activities and internal data management. Different soft wares are used internally in any organization for data warehousing and most companies are using websites and apps for its external uses. Apps are the need of the hour, since with the advent of smart phones and tablets; these apps are the easiest way to connect to one’s target audience. Thus, it is very important for most IT companies to use extensive performance testing services, before giving away the final software to thecompanies for use in their businesses.

What are the different types of software and performance testing services used?

• Most IT companies provide these services to build a fool-proof system.
• The entire process basically involves a procedure that checks if the quality of the software or system is as per the particular requirement and specification.
• There are various testing levels in the software performance testing services, namely unit testing, integration testing, component interface testing, system testing and acceptance testing.
• These are in a particular sequence, which is carried out to prevent any delays in responses if any, in the applications.
• Unit testing which is at a functional level comprises of checking for verification of the codes.
• Whereas, Component interface testing check the handling of data between various components.
• Companies can also make use of a testing centre of excellence, in order to make sure they are constantly improving the way their software is being tested. TCOE is very useful in constantly improving one’s services.
• A software test can be classified as static or dynamic
• It may also be functional or non-functional.

Measuring one’s systems time to time, in order to improve and evaluate is a must for most organization. In the digital space, in order to be one of the best in the industry, companies have to constantly monitor and upgrade their application performance management systems, in order to make sure their measurement procedure is perfect.

How is application performance management measured?

• The entire process is divided into two parts
• The first part being tested for the use by an end user and the second being for load testing
• The load testing typically involves checking the capacity of any software. It basically involves checking how much time is taken by the apps to respond to some particular commands
• Most software applications are really fast in today’s times, thus application performance management becomes way easier for the testers
• After checking for load, the IT experts test it for different types of possibility which can delay a particular response of a user
• Once verified for any delay in responses, they can benchmark it and use it for improvement, in order to make the entire software ready-to-use and completely error proof as well.
