Ensure Critical Systems Can Handle Load And Performance
Performance testing or Performance Management focuses on how the business’ goals and criteria are to be achieved, not just technology and execution.
Along with functional requirements, the non-functional requirements form the entire basis of software testing. The challenge of testing non-functional requirements is to ensure that they are tested in an environment as similar to the production environment as possible and to determine how the results should be measured and interpreted. It also includes phases for analysis, design, implementation, execution, reporting and post-work where each phase has clear success factors and a clear focus on both the business benefit and the technology.
This is how we work with performance testing
At Lemontree, we work with a clear process approach divided into introduction, rollout and follow-up to easily establish a performance function in an existing organisation where communication channels can be quickly established with important decision-making bodies such as test leaders, requirement setters, the business and suppliers.
Consulting Services
We offer consultants in the field to carry out assignments, projects and deliveries:
- Requirements and definition of needs
- Project and test management work
- Technical investigations and PoC management
- Proof of Concept with our partners and concept.
- Implementation of technical solutions
- Execution, reporting and management of technical solutions
Performance Management can advantageously cooperate with Service Virtualisation to simulate dependencies to systems that are under development or that are unavailable for other reasons. In this way, performance and load test problems can be detected and fixed earlier.
Lemontree can deliver Performance Management as a function where we take overall responsibility, such as TaaS in the cloud or for operations under the customer’s own auspices.
In Performance Management, Lemontree uses world-leading products from HP for performance tests. Although the emphasis is on defining how the tests are to be carried out and which metrics are to be checked, it is important that the right tools are used for the tests themselves so that these can be carried out as planned. Depending on the conditions, different tools are used. The latest addition HP StormRunner Load is used to load test web applications, including mobile web applications. Here we use built-in monitors to monitor the topology under test. This solution requires no installation and the service can be used at very short notice and without extensive preparation.
For mobile applications, HP Network Virtualisation is used to test how different providers and bandwidth affect the mobile applications. HP Loadrunner when other protocols are required to load test the applications. Monitoring is handled by the included HP SiteScope.
In larger organizations where you manage performance tests in several different parallel projects, we install and use HP Performance Center as part of HP ALM. HP Performance Center uses the same controllers and load generators as HP Loadrunner, but everything is centrally administered in HP Performance Center.
