The challenges of our modern world Agile & modern business require modern and fast applications

Modern, mobile applications

Service-oriented applications Composite applications


Changes are coming faster

• Cloud and composite applications are increasingly complex

• Customers demand mobile access services

• The pace of change is only increasing

• Project and delivery teams are both agile and global

• Businesses need applications to connect with – Customers – Partners – Suppliers…

Can they depend on your applications to keep up?


The solution: performance testing

• Simulates real users with thousands of “virtual” users

• Generates accurate, measurable and repeatable load on the system from a single

point of control

• Pinpoints bottlenecks in the system

Web server App. server Database Internet/ WAN

Emulate production workloads end-to-end

Simulates thousands of users

Performance Test


HP LoadRunner

Load and performance testing tasks are frequently tactical and project focused efforts to ensure that an application will be successful when deployed to production.

• Project testing teams require tools to support their specific performance testing needs and for many years, an industry leader in the project load and performance testing space has been HP LoadRunner.

• LoadRunner is an effective choice when you need to test a handful of projects and applications at a single geographic location before deploying them to production.

Introduction to Performance Testing


As customers mature, they start encountering a new set of problems…

Multiple projects

Common repository

Auditing

Multiple people

Privilege management

Global teams

Asset sharing

Reporting

Security Collaboration

Best practices

Scheduling

License management

Geo restrictions

Redundancy

…and need an enterprise performance testing solution


Project based testing challenges—consider 4 projects

Project A HP LoadRunner 11.5 Simulated users: 1500 4 boxes

Project B HP LoadRunner 9.1 Simulated users: 1500 8 boxes

Project C Other load test SW Simulated users: 2500 6 boxes

Project D No load test budget “Hope for the best”

No sharing of best practices & skills – each project is unique and isolated

No global collaboration possible – local only

Duplicated resources (HW and SW) in separate projects

Different solutions means duplicate skills and test cases are not reusable

Unable to maximize utilization of resources

No management visibility across projects


The platform for enterprise performance testing

Performance Center includes all HP LoadRunner features and takes performance testing to a global enterprise level.

Globally accessible, centralized platform. Enables consistent, repeatable processes to:

• Plan and execute tests across multiple concurrent projects and people

• Identify and eliminate performance bottlenecks

• Track performance requirements and defects, ensure coverage, traceability

Maximize productivity, collaboration, utilization of resources and application quality
