Web
Performance Testing

Script Development

Deep
integration with Visual
Studio

•
Leverage existing coding skills, .NET
framework, debugger, editors, etc.


Web Performance Tests

•
Advanced recording at multiple levels

•
Rich UI in Visual Studio

•
Automatically handles most dynamic
parameters so record/playback “just
works”

•
Extensibility to avoid tight corners


“Unit” tests for load testing via an API

•
Any non
-
HTTP server can be targeted

•
Test earlier in lifecycle

Script Development

•
Many sites “just work”

•
Automatically detects dependents

•
Automatically creates “transactions” around pages (page +
dependents)

•
HTTP/HTTPS

•
All authorization schemes

•
Data binding/data driven tests

•
Parameterize target server to repurpose scripts

•
Easily simulate different browsers and networks

•
Rich extensibility points and intuitive API

•
Support for coded and declarative style tests

•
Support for nested tests (test components)

•
Supports MS and non
-
MS web servers

Web
Performance Tests

Script Development

•
“Unit” tests can be run under load

•
Enables testing any server with a .NET API

•
Web services, Active Directory, Windows
Communication Foundation, SQL, etc.

•
Deep integration with VS allows you to leverage
developer tests for performance testing

•
APIs to insert performance timing measurement
blocks

•
Codeplex

tools for generating unit tests from SQL
and WCF traces


Unit Tests

Load Testing

What is a load test?

•
An automated collection of tests run in
parallel to simulate multiple users or
systems

•
Load tests run software unit tests, database unit
tests, and web performance tests

•
Visual Studio captures details metrics while the
load test runs

Load Testing

Flexible Load Modeling

•
Enables easily simulating different user groups

•
Goal
-
based, step, constant, and custom load patterns

•
Model different browsers and networks

Efficient Load Generation

•
Minimal hardware investments

•
Scale
-
out load generation

Integrated and Extensible Data Collection

•
Performance Counter Sets capture key measurements

•
Primary counters identified for key technologies

•
Thresholds bake in guidance on counters

•
Test results stored in
SQL for custom reporting

•
Data collectors allow custom log capture

Load Modeling

•
“Scenarios” for modeling
different user groups


•
Step, goal
-
based, constant,
and custom load patterns


•
Duration
-
based and iteration
based


•
Ability to simulate different
browsers and networks

Integrated Diagnostics

•
Out of Box integration with
ASP.NET Profiler


•
Integration to JAVA
application diagnostics via
Dynatrace


•
Event log, Network Emulation
and and other collectors
