Tooling and Personnel Considerations • Collaboration during testing is essential for efficiency … … so your load tools should allow for collaboration • Access and manipulate load test data live over the web • Individual component owners (DBAs, Middleware, Apps, Network, ISP, Hoster, LOB, etc.) need to analyze load test data during the test… ...but the data each one needs is different! • Multiple users logged into the same load session separately • No desktop sharing!

  5. e-TEST suite is designed for collaboration • Distributed, high-scale load control • Multi-user Web UI for real-time individual analysis Each user can view results from the same load test as it runs

  6. Managed Services: An often-forgotten approach • Load testing is… • high-intensity • short-duration • low-frequency • Challenge to maintain… • Tool skills • Environment availability • Proper methodology • Consistent team Sometimes build/buy/lease and execute yourself isn’t the best approach

  7. Managed Services: A different approach • Complement to in-house testing • or a complete alternative in some cases • Our testers (tool and methodology experts) • Our load infrastructure (high-availability, short notice) • Our tools (no need to buy) • Your production or staging environment • Your application and infrastructure experts • WHOLE IS GREATER THAN THE SUM OF THE PARTS
