Write performance test report is to investigate logic skills, how to streamline a lot of test information, colloquially expressed in writing it is very important. At the time of writing this chapter must pay attention to talking about points and rational, not to "stray", the key is to master the core idea of writing the report, I usually pay attention to the following points:
- Clear structure: feels good to have a sense of hierarchy, so that does not seem to chaos, to read easier to understand.
- Description simple: just do not write nonsense and concise. Sometimes the analysis process will be very long, write down the appropriate time to pay attention, do not rigidly all written out, ask a lot of time to see who has a long report?
- Photo mix: a picture is worth a thousand words, a picture can say things clearly, try not to write the narrative of a large section of text to describe.
- Comparison of the data: the most powerful report does not describe how colorful, artsy nor how to write, but to have the data, there should comparative analysis, this report is more convincing.
So how to write a report format? There are two common reporting format, you can write down the time reference.
- Focus on first: the first focus of this report is to write out, there are the usual focus, focus on defects found this test conclusions, testing and so on. Let people see the report of a look you can see, not like the "running account" like read.
- Key underwent: just the opposite and above the "first focus" is to focus on the final report, like "running account" in order to gradually analysis, the final conclusion is given.
Both formats is no absolute good or bad, to be due to appropriate . Some details are also worth considering.
For example: You write a report to whom? Leaders or technicians? Different people and professional concerns may be different, you think you might write a very good report, but there may be leading to a batch miserable. If the report is to look at the leadership, then try to avoid the term test, to use a more understandable words to describe. Concise report, do not do too much useless description, leadership and attention to detail did not have time, they pay more attention to the conclusions. If the report is to look at the technical personnel, more than can be ignored for so long scruples, you can stand to describe the professional point of view, reflecting the process of analysis, details, solutions and test results.
You analyze the issues, should give appropriate solutions. Performance Testing in itself is a huge and complex task, not a light can be completed, with the collaboration parties who need to be done. For testers this process is very interesting, you can learn a lot of knowledge to give solutions to different problems, which for you is a rare "Fortune."
