Software testing solutions form one of the most crucial portions of any software project and within it, Performance testing is most important. There are certain questions and certain set of checklists that must be referred to before going in for Performance testing. Have a glimpse of some of the factors that are mandatorily a part of any checklist, the possible questions to be asked and the various categories under which this testing parameters fall.

1. DON’T FAIL TO USE THESE
CHECKLISTS
BEFORE KICK STARTING
PERFORMANCE TESTING
“If you don’t like testing your product, most
likely your customers won’t like to test it either.”

2. SOFTWARETESTING SOLUTIONS
 Comprises of numerous activities
to be tested in parallel and with
various locations and
infrastructure
 Could have multiple concurrent
users each with their own set of
specifications
 There arises the need for
PERFORMANCETESTING - one of
the most important ingredients of
testing

3. PERFORMANCETESTING – A MUST HAVE
 The key to avoid any hurdle or
disturbance in implementation of
software projects
 It does have its own set of
challenges to face
 Pre-defined checklists ensure
smooth and robust testing to
impact the business growth
 High speed, scalable, fault free
and stable system can be
achieved with an early head start
that surely pays off

5. ASK THESE QUESTIONS BEFORE
PERFORMANCE TESTING
COMMENCES

6. WHICH ARETHETYPES OF
PERFORMANCETESTING NEEDED?

7. WHAT ISTHE SOLUTION COVERAGETHAT
NEEDS PERFORMANCETESTING?

8. WHAT NUMBER OF CONCURRENT USERS
IS ANTICIPATED ATTHE MAXIMUM?

9. MAJOR CATEGORIES OF
CHECKLISTS FOR
PERFORMANCE TESTING
Why are these ChecklistsUseful?
 Identify of a variety of relevant metrics which are applicable
before testing
 Find out required tasks to finish while planning for testing
 Pinpoint vital technologies that are going to affect your
performance testing

10. CHECKLIST RELATEDTO PERFORMANCE
TEST ENVIRONMENT
Is there a proper testing setup?
Is there sufficient data available for testing?
Will there be virtual users?
Is there sufficient documentation?
Is version controlling being followed properly?
Are all relevant tools and supporting tools
available for testing?
Are the tools costly including the licensing costs?
Do all network components in production exist in
test?
Is the architecture of the test site the same as
production?

11. CHECKLIST RELATEDTO PERFORMANCE
TIMELINES
When will the application be equipped for
performance testing?
How much time is available for performance
testing?
How many iterations of testing will take
place?

12. CHECKLIST RELATEDTO PEOPLE AND
PROCESSES
Why, How and what to do PerformanceTesting?
What needs to be measured and how?
What are the failures thought of?
What is the pass / fail timelines pre-decided?
What is the frequency of performing the tests?
What is the budget available and who is
responsible to maintain that?
What is the tools availability and how flexible are
they?
Is there a team readily available having a proper
mix of team leaders?
What are your resources going to cost?
