What is Agile Performance Testing?
Agile is the culture of diving into the work sprint-wise and developing the feature to deliver an application. In each team, there will be a set of developers, testers, scrum masters, and product owners. Here, the capacity planning is done at the start of the sprint. Capacity planning is nothing but how many hours in a day the team contributes regularly. After that development process will happen for the decided stories or tasks. Once development and code deployment are done, the tester will start their testing. This process is regularly happening for each sprint.
Performance testing is the process of testing the application performances, responses under heavy traffic or load, getting responses from services, the time required to load the application, regression testing, stress testing, and so on.
- Now, when we combine performance testing in agile methodology, the testing process becomes even easier, and application, stability is also increased over time.
- This is because we are carrying out the testing in each sprint for each feature development to avoid defects in future development processes or testing.
- This allows the testing team to communicate about the issue they have observed and can know the loading time of the application or the performance of the application in each sprint. It ensures the high stability for an application.
Collaborative Load Testing Strategies for Agile Teams
Collaborative load testing or load testing in an agile environment is nothing but it ensures that our application can perform under heavy traffic load. The process of load testing is to test the application’s performance under heavy traffic and ensure the scalability and SLA responses and violations of each service used in the application. This testing is one of the important methods to carry out before each product release. It ensures the stability, scalability, and actual performance of the application.
