How to implant Performance in your SDLC – Part II
Load and Performance Testing is a neglected cousin of security testing. Both disciplines deal with technical requirements, are to a big extend not manual testable and require a detailed technical background. Therefore, organizations often gradually neglect both. However, I will give you now an overview how the former can be prepared and executed.
How to implant Performance in your SDLC – Part I
Forward thinking organizations have introduced new terms such as shift left, but what does this actually mean and how is it related to performance? According to the defect cost theory, the point in time where you detect issues drives fix efforts.
Breathe new life into application performance testing
So much time and money are wasted by uncovering bugs too late in the software development lifecycle. Unit testing is king and most important for a high-quality product because the earlier we identify problems the easier they are to fix.
Application Performance Monitoring and how to use your monitoring metrics
One of the biggest players in the application-performance-monitoring industry recently went to the stock market. As the company is the […]
Why load and performance testing should go beyond response time validation
Testing performance requirements needs to be a fundamental task for every company. Now, it’s no longer a question of what […]

Network Performance Impact
Centrally hosted and globally used applications don’t always deliver satisfied user experience. Some people may argue; “don’t worry, let’s increase the bandwidth to solve our performance problem.. simple!”. Based on my experience the biggest proportion of WAN performance issues are not related to a shortage in bandwidth.
Performance Issues by Design
In the past, performance issues were often solved using investment in infrastructure. In many cases this approach worked fine but […]
