Load testing can be defined as a process of testing, where demand/load is put on the target system and response is measured. In software system, load refers to the number of concurrent users accessing the system. Load testing is performed to check the system’s behavior under normal and peak load conditions. It helps to understand the maximum load bearing capacity of the system and identify the bottlenecks.
Self service load testing can be defined as a ‘self service process‘, where you do not need to depend on a test service provider or consultant to run the test again and again. The self service load testing platform is sufficient enough to run the tests independently. User just needs to schedule the test and provide minimal input.
Self-service portal for load testing:
Self-service portal can be defined as a gateway to different services. In testing context, it is the gateway to different testing services like self-service load testing and many more. Here, pengguna dapat menelusuri melalui layanan pengujian beban yang tersedia dan menemukan rincian mereka. Pengguna juga dapat memilih layanan pengujian yang diperlukan dan menjalankannya secara mandiri. Total aliran pengujian dapat dikelola dari portal ini tanpa bantuan dari staf IT. kegunaan, melihat & merasa sangat penting untuk keberhasilan portal self-service ini. Portal swalayan juga datang di bawah layanan on-demand, karena dapat digunakan sesuai permintaan pengujian beban dari setiap perangkat lunak atau aplikasi mobile.
Keuntungan dari pengujian beban swalayan:
Sekarang kita tahu tentang portal swalayan dan penggunaannya dalam pengujian beban. Mari kita lihat pada keuntungan yang terkait dengan jenis self-layanan.
- Tes ini dapat dilakukan setiap saat tanpa bantuan dari setiap staf TI.
- Proses pengujian ini sangat sederhana. Users just need to follow the guided workflow to launch a test or schedule it to run at a later point of time.
- Load testing is done on a SAAS model. So it is flexible and pay-as-you-go model.
- Self-diagnostic tests can be performed prior to expected peak load in production environment.
- Powerful reporting dashboard gives a clear picture of all the test results.
Now we know about the self-service load testing and its advantages. We also know about the self-service portal and its features. Different load testing tools provide self-service portal for load testing websites and mobile apps. All testing services/tools can be accessed from one convenient and affordable easy-to-use portal. These tools also provide easy to use self-service load testing features along with powerful reporting dashboard.
