    Scalability Testing Approach

    Uploaded by

    loadtracer
    Scalability testing determines a system's behavior under increasing load by measuring performance attributes at various scaling points. TRACE uses a defined methodology with in-house tools to provide an integrated scalability testing solution. The approach determines a system's behavior before stress points through continuous, iterative testing with increasing load. At each level, performance attributes are monitored and analyzed. The scalability testing flow includes planning, environment setup, execution by increasing load until scaling limits are reached, data collection and analysis. Attributes measured include response time, throughput, CPU and memory usage, and network usage.

    INTRODUCTION
    Software Testing
    Testing is not just finding out the defects. Testing is not just seeing the requirements are
    satisfied. Testing is a process of verifying and validating all wanted requirements are there in
    products and also verifying and validating any unwanted requirements are there in the
    products. It is also seeing any latent effects are there in the product because of these
    requirements.
    Testing is not just a phase in SDLC, but it is to be addressed in all phases.
    Scalability testing is to determine system behavior by increasing the load with a particular
    scaling ratio. For every scaling point all the performance attributes have to be determined.
    Also the factors affecting the application scaling capacity have to be determined.

    TRACE APPROACH
    TRACE provides an integrated complete end-to-end scalability testing solution to its customers
    with its defined methodology and in-house testing tools. A well-defined end-to-end metric
    based process with proper entry and exit criteria focusing on the entire aspects of scalability
    testing is followed at TRACE.
    The approach followed at Trace is based on determining the system behavior before reaching
    the stress point. This is done with a continuous iterative testing by increasing load. At each
    level all the performance attributes have been monitored and analyzed.
