Load Testing

Load testing involves using tools like Load Runner to emulate multiple concurrent users accessing a system to predict performance under heavy usage and identify bottlenecks. Load Runner simulates user actions like logging in, searching, and purchasing to test a system with up to 10 concurrent users and analyzes how the system and response times are affected as load increases. Performance testing should account for differences across browsers as technologies vary between browsers and optimizations must evolve with changing browsers.

Load Testing

Using Load Testing we can predict performance and behavior of the system. Load Runner emulates an environment in which multiple users work concurrently. When the system is under load, the tool analysis the system behavior and its functionality. Load Runner: Checking performance.. Tuning.. Diagnostics.. Pinpoint bottlenecks.

Benefits of using a tool. Replacing the need to human users. Reduce hardware requirements as it can be used on a single machine.

Why Performance Testing should depend on different Browsers..:::::

Developers nowadays user interrelated technologies to create an application, which differ from browser to browser. The rate of change is accelerating, with competition between vendors leading to massive gains in performance We need to understand how our applications perform in real browsers on the real network We need to know both what users encounter and what they perceive Optimization techniques must evolve along with the browsers So, performance testing should take into account browser differences And to do that, we need to know what browsers are visiting our site

Working of Load Runner :: We will run a load test on an application with upto 10 concurrent users. The test will emulate the travel agents simultaneously like loggin in, searching for flights, purchansing, checking itineries, and logging off.. During the test, we will see how the web server behaves under load, and how the response time to any use action increases with increase in load.

Load Runner provides indepth analysis through detailed graphs and reports. We can also use the Auto correlate tool to merge all the graphs that contain data that can have an effect on the response time, to pinpoint what is happening at the moment the problem occurred.
