Abstract
The performance testing is a measure of the performance
characteristics of an application. The main objective
of a performance testing is to demonstrate that the
system functions to specification with acceptable response
times while processing the required transaction volumes
in real-time production database. The objective of a
performance test is to demonstrate that the system meets
requirements for transaction throughput and response
times simultaneously. The main deliverables from such
a test, prior to execution, are automated test scripts
and an infrastructure to be used to execute automated
tests for extended periods.
This paper describes about the Performance Testing
objectives, Prerequisites for performance testing, Metrics
captured during the Performance Testing. The paper also
explains about the challenges faced during the performance
testing, approach for performance testing and common
mistakes in performance testing.
