Performance Testing : Tips n Tricks!

     JavaScript is rapidly becoming the driving force behind the Internet. Any website, small or large, has some parts written with JavaScript to enhance the user experience. Browser vendors constantly improve the speed in which JavaScript is parsed and executed in their browsers. This increase in speed is now to the point that it’s become one of the key benchmarks for every browser version. When we performance test a website, a web application, or even a REST service we can be sure that JavaScript plays some role in the business process we are about to test. Why would we want to use JavaScript in our script? There are four main reasons: JavaScript often offers a more intuitive experience which is easier to implement than in C. The JavaScript regular expression library simplifies the challenge of working with regular expressions. Numerous JavaScript libraries that assist with any coding task (e.g. string manipulation) are available. Client-side logic is often implemented

Introduction Latest Version  :           12.53 Developed       :           HP Software Division OS                   :           Windows/ Linux (Load Generator Only) HP LoadRunner is a software testing tool from Hewlett-Packard. It is used to test applications, measuring system behaviour and performance under load. HP acquired LoadRunner as part of its acquisition of Mercury Interactive in November 2006. HP LoadRunner can simulate thousands of users concurrently using application software, recording and later analysing the performance of key components of the application. LoadRunner simulates user activity: ·       by generating messages between application components ·       by simulating interactions with the user interface such as keypresses or mouse movements It provides an efficient and robust means to verify that your application’s architecture is built for more efficient performance and reliabili
