Overview

Uplatz offers comprehensive training on Performance Testing with LoadRunner. This is online video-based training course. You will be awarded Course Completion Certificate at the end of the course.

Performance Testing is a type of software testing that is used to measure the speed, responsiveness, stability, scalability, and reliability of an application or system under various load conditions. The goal of performance testing is to identify performance bottlenecks and areas for improvement, and to ensure that the application or system can meet performance requirements.

There are several types of performance testing, including:

  1. Load testing - This involves testing the application under normal and peak load conditions to determine how it performs under heavy usage.

  2. Stress testing - This involves testing the application under extreme load conditions to determine how it handles unexpected traffic spikes and to identify its breaking point.

  3. Endurance testing - This involves testing the application under continuous load conditions to determine how it performs over an extended period of time.

  4. Spike testing - This involves testing the application under sudden and extreme load conditions to determine how it handles unexpected traffic spikes.

  5. Capacity testing - This involves testing the application to determine its maximum capacity and to ensure that it can handle the expected number of users.

Performance testing can be conducted using various tools and techniques, such as load generators, monitoring tools, profiling tools, and performance testing frameworks. The results of performance testing can help developers and testers to identify performance issues and optimize the application or system for better performance.

There are several performance testing tools available in the market that can be used to conduct performance testing. Here are some of the most popular performance testing tools:

  1. Apache JMeter - Apache JMeter is an open-source performance testing tool that can be used to test the performance of web applications, web services, and FTP servers. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, JDBC, SOAP, and LDAP.

  2. LoadRunner - LoadRunner is a performance testing tool that is widely used for testing the performance of enterprise applications. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and SMTP, and can simulate thousands of virtual users.

  3. Gatling - Gatling is an open-source performance testing tool that is designed for testing the performance of web applications. It supports HTTP, WebSocket, and JMS protocols and can simulate thousands of virtual users.

  4. Selenium - Selenium is a popular open-source automated testing tool that can also be used for performance testing. It supports multiple browsers and can be used to test the performance of web applications.

  5. NeoLoad - NeoLoad is a performance testing tool that can be used to test the performance of web and mobile applications. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSocket, and can simulate thousands of virtual users.

  6. AppDynamics - AppDynamics is a performance testing tool that can be used to monitor the performance of applications in real-time. It supports multiple platforms and can provide deep insights into application performance issues.

  7. BlazeMeter - BlazeMeter is a cloud-based performance testing tool that can be used to test the performance of web and mobile applications. It supports multiple protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSocket, and can simulate thousands of virtual users.

These are just a few examples of the many performance testing tools available in the market. The choice of tool depends on the specific needs and requirements of the project.

Description

In this Performance Testing course, we will focus on the Performance Testing concepts and implementation of it with LoadRunner.

LoadRunner is a performance testing tool developed by Micro Focus that allows developers and testers to test the performance, scalability, and reliability of applications under heavy load. LoadRunner works by simulating real-world user traffic and interactions with the application, and measuring the response times and resource utilization of the system under different load conditions.

LoadRunner supports a wide range of protocols and technologies, including web, mobile, cloud, and enterprise applications. It also offers various types of performance tests, such as load testing, stress testing, and endurance testing.

LoadRunner consists of several components, including the Virtual User Generator (VUGen) for creating virtual user scripts, the Controller for managing and executing tests, and the Analysis tool for analyzing and reporting test results. LoadRunner can be used to test applications running on different platforms, such as Windows, Linux, and mainframe systems.

Overall, LoadRunner is a powerful and comprehensive performance testing tool that can help ensure that applications meet the performance and scalability requirements of their users.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
