Endurance testing in software testing is a kind of non-functional test that is performed to evaluate the software applications’ behavior under high loads for an extended amount of time. It is performed during the last stage of the performance run cycle, and sometimes, can last for as long as a year.
Volume testing is non-functional testing that is performed to test the software’s capacity to handle large volumes of data.
Everything You Need To Know About Stress Testing Your Software
Stress testing is a type of testing that verifies the reliability and stability of software applications. The goal of this kind of testing is to measure the error handling capabilities of the software to ensure that it does not crash under extremely heavy load conditions.
Load Testing Of SSO Enabled Applications
Single sign-on or SSO enabled applications were introduced to provide more security and ease of use to the end-users. Enabling SSO also needs an evaluation of application performance. This ensures the performance is not hampered during authentication.
In this edition, we will discuss how to test the performance of SSO enabled applications.
During this pandemic, the cloud infrastructure has enabled the world to collaborate and work remotely, and is now being looked as the preferred tool for business operations. The cloud marketplace has now evolved to a point where companies are completing their testing solutions and facilitating load testing in cloud-based applications. When performing load testing services, you need to setup a comprehensive testing infrastructure in order to run the tests under different load levels and achieve your desired results.
Today, the usage of wearable devices are on a rise and shipments of these will increase by 25.8% in 2019. Product companies are rushing to make their apps usable on smartwatches and bands. This needs robust and fast development as well as comprehensive testing techniques that can deliver bug-free applications to the end users. Due to increase the demand of wearable devices in the market, it is a time that QA companies should start thinking about both manual and automation testing of wearable device apps to deliver best quality products.
Since few years, we have witnessed that big data has become a vital component in banking, healthcare, retail, education, and research domains. As an end user, we are consuming as well as producing data. This information is processed by various applications for analysis, predictions, and decision-making. Enormous growth, efficiency and performance of big data applications can make a huge impact in our daily lives.
Enterprise Content Management is a kind of revolution which not only makes centrally stored files secure, allows document versioning, and content search, but also provides a provision to manage them easily. The Enterprise Content Management can be on cloud or setup locally. Stored files can be official documents in .xls, .doc, .ppt, .pdf file formats or multimedia files like video clip, audio file, and many more. SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, and Box are some of the central storage repositories. Storing heavy files in bulk is of no use if it delivers at a slow pace. Hence, performance testing is required to verify the functionality under heavy load, session management, and stress capabilities. This time, we avail an opportunity to share our experience with Enterprise Content Management system.
