It is important to have a robust application that can scale to meet different users’ needs without any side effects. Considering this, it is important to execute performance tests for Salesforce applications.
Based on numbers from Statista, more than 60% of the customers have switched to Salesforce CRM software in 2021.
The following are some of the challenges which performance testing team should be aware of:
High network latency due to multiple complex pages to load
A single app server for multiple clients causes challenges in getting performance stats for a specific client
The test run schedule is dependent on the Salesforce team’s approval
Stress testing is restricted due to the multi-tenant environment
Following are the important factors that should be taken care of in the test plan and submitted two weeks in advance while taking approval from the Salesforce team:
BlazeMeter
JMeter
NeoLoad
LoadRunner
The Salesforce applications that perform best, will deliver excellent customer experiences even on peak usage days. Although Salesforce’s conditions prevent any organization from being 100% certain of high performance, comprehensive performance testing can ensure performance takes place at a reasonable level.
