Performance testing tool
Performance testing tool for simple automation scripts, and run on hundreds or thousands of computers to simulate application performance under load.
These tests are usually very expensive, and the operating frequency of less than functional test automation. Performance testing is particularly important for cloud applications, there are two main types to consider:
-
Single business (Pure Play)
-
Extended tool (Extension Tools)
The following is the difference between the two tools you need to know:
☞ Pure Play performance testing tool
advantage:
-
Usually cheaper
-
In the later embodiment and reduce friction during
-
Using the best tools for faster development
-
Support for more integration and the use of open source
Disadvantages:
-
You need a separate script / language training and maintenance
☞ Extension performance testing tool
advantage:
-
Automated scripts allow the reuse of past
-
Use familiar language
-
Across multiple tools provide a single supplier relationship
Disadvantages:
-
Follow slower, less focus on development
-
Providing a closed ecological system, restrict access to the best tools
-
Usually more expensive, for large organizations
