Is your user happy with the application's speed?
Influenced by the improvement in visual and performance experience on smartphones, users today use these devices to access news, shop, conduct banking transactions, listen to music, and access company systems. This change in behavior has accentuated the need for Application performance, as users today are no longer willing to wait. If waiting six seconds for a site to load was normal before, today an App that takes more than 3 seconds has a higher abandonment rate, affecting the company's image and resulting in financial losses.
We recognize that, beyond the obvious features and functions of a software project that need to be tested, there are other business requirements that are equally important, but do not have a real function. These "non-functional requirements" are characteristics that must be satisfied in order to meet business goals at different stages of development. Among the non-functional areas we evaluate as part of our services are attributes such as capacity, availability, security, scalability, performance, reliability, and accessibility.
In other words, good performance, even with large amounts of data and transactions, is a fundamental requirement to obtain response times that guarantee the best user experience.
Vericode Approach
Vericode offers performance/stress testing services that allow for the validation of scalability and performance of platforms and applications, with an approach that maximizes the use of infrastructure to quickly implement load scenarios and perform large-scale system tests:
- Supporting tests on complex infrastructures (traditional, Cloud, Mobile, etc.).
- Recommending the correct sizing of the Application's production environment.
- Monitoring all infrastructure components.
- Instrumenting Applications, runtimes, agents, proxies and various other techniques to track and determine how the user experience is affected by various layers of modern IT infrastructure.
- Determining the concurrent user volume that the environment supports.
- Presenting the response time of Application transactions.
- Utilizing the SoftLayer public cloud to extend load generation capacity as needed.
- Properly sizing the resources required for your Applications
- Identifying and managing performance issues using integrated resource and event monitoring and a browser-type visualization of test results in web tabs.
- Benefit from the integration between tools to improve performance results and quality management."
