Performance testing services are offered in two separate categories
- Advisory Services
- Engineering and Execution Services
Advisory Services
With our performance testing advisory services, we assess business NFR needs and application consumption, identify gaps, define a roadmap with test tool and platform feasibility, Framework guidelines, best practices, and recommendations, to achieve performance test integrated SDLC, maximized ROI and less time to market. Advisory services are executed by dedicated performance testing consultants, having extensive experience in the field of performance testing. Glimpse of activities performed as a part of our advisory services are provided below:
Need and Gap Assessment
We understand / deep dive into the customer’s business performance testing needs and non-functional performance requirements. We analyze the real time traffic for its type and velocity, study the existing bottlenecks, the process followed, the testing in place and understand the future needs. We derive the dimensions to evaluate, define the goals/objectives and identify the performance testing gaps that need to be addressed.
Strategizing the Performance Test
Considering the user behavior modelling, pareto analysis (80-20 rule), expected goals/objectives and the performance testing gaps to be addressed, we devise and strategize user experience focused on end-to-end performance testing for our customers. Our strategy details the methodology, test applicability, workload model, and timelines along with key milestones and deliverables.
Tool Feasibility and Fitment
Workload of an application comprises of traffic which is over protocols like HTTP, HTTPS, Web socket, gRPC, ODBC, TCP, REST API, SOAP, RTMP, HLS, AJAX, etc. To evaluate the performance precisely and design near real-time workload, we analyze the traffic in detail and identify an optimized set of commercial and open-source tools fit for performance testing, driven by higher ROI across categories such as web analytics, load generation, APM, monitoring, logging and alerts, etc.
Performance Framework Implementation
We define the best suited performance testing frameworks for our customers, the selection and definition of which is driven by the multiple toolsets in use. Our frameworks cover various aspects such as reusable scripting classes/libraries, workload designing and scheduling, on-demand and scalable load generation lab, near real-time test execution monitoring, and comparative and trend analysis dashboards. Overall, it helps to achieve higher efficiency and enhance productivity.
Analysis and Optimization
We analyze the performance testing tool and monitoring logs, raw reports and work closely with the customer team to identify the bottlenecks. Our experts deep dive into various details such as the workload executed, the stats recorded, the infrastructure utilization, errors reported, the performance KPIs etc. and provide recommendations for optimization.
Engineering and Execution Services
For this service, the testing activity is managed by the customer, right from timelines, milestones, to deliverables, and our team/resources are onboarded for execution to work closely with customer stakeholders. Our team/resources are responsible to execute all the required performance testing activities from gathering the NFRs, designing and maintaining the scripts and designing the scenarios and data, performing executions, gathering the monitoring data logs, and generating the required reports. Timely insights about the progress of work, identified bottlenecks, its impact, and any challenges observed are provided to all the stakeholders.
