Web Site Load Testing means protecting your IT investment
Poor performance can negatively impact your business:
interruption of service
loss of potential customers or partners
decrease in productivity
brand erosion
costly repairs
unnecessary hardware investment
Web Site Load Testing prevents performance flaws.
Web Site Load Testing:
Predicts performance during high loads.
Identifies web site issues in a simulated environment.
Helps to prevent problems (any flawed software, network, code or even hardware) before they occur in real situations.
NeoLoad can improve web performance
How does NeoLoad perform load testing?
NeoLoad simulates traffic and activity – common tasks like submitting forms or executing searches – by as many ‘virtual’ users needed to meet your load requirements. Web Stress Results are available in real time.
Can I solve performance problems by adding more machines?
No! The majority of performance issues are not hardware-related. For example, if a connection pool to the database is limited to 10, the number of simultaneous users accessing the database will never exceed 10, no matter how powerful the server might be.
Can't I simulate a high load by simply decreasing the waiting time between pages?
No! The thinktime simulates the amount of time that a real user takes to pause between two web pages. Each user session consumes some server resources, but decreasing thinktime to artificially increase the hit rate does not generate a realistic load; it simply produces an inaccurate test.
I'm used to solve problems. Is web site load testing that important?
Yes! When ‘live’ problems occur, you have little time to react; don't underestimate the time needed to identify and fix them. Once fixed, the only way to be sure that the same problem will not recur is to check your system with a Web Site Load Testing session before going live again.
