Training: Performance testing

Rated with a 9.1
Upcoming start date 8 November 2024

Performance is an aspect that is becoming increasingly important in modern applications. Performance testing ensures that you gain insight into the performance and response times of a system that is subjected to a certain load.

This two-day training from Testsmith introduces you to the world of performance testing. Frustrated end-users, downtime, high bounce rates, and negative media attention can all be the result of poor application performance. Various studies show that better performance leads to better conversion rates. But how do you test that? During this training, we will conduct a complete performance testing process. From specifying scripts to executing and analyzing the results. You will take the performance test scripts home and can immediately apply them to your own situation.

Experience with basic programming principles is not required, but some affinity with technology is recommended.

Format of the Performance Testing Training

The training is given in a group of at least 3 and at most 10 participants to ensure the quality of the training. The instructor explains the practical applicability using real-world examples.

This classroom training is interactive, meaning there is ample opportunity to ask questions or discuss your own practical cases. Through exercises, you will work out several scenarios, including stress testing, load testing, spike testing, and endurance testing.

Participants are required to bring their own laptop with local admin rights.

Objective of the Performance Testing Training

Are end-users frequently experiencing problems while using the website, application, or system? You may notice this through dissatisfied users, declining traffic, or a low conversion rate. To identify the performance problem, you conduct a performance testing process. The testing process can consist of different types of scripts, each with a specific goal. By performing these tests regularly before a release of new functionality, you ensure consistent performance and an improved user experience for your end-users. Sign up today and you will be independently conducting performance tests in no time!

Gisteren een leuke en leerzame training JMeter gevolgd. Roy kan de stof goed en vol enthousiasme overbrengen. Goede verdeling tussen informatie delen en praktijk oefeningen.

Zeer kwalitatieve, interessante en leerrijke cursus! Goed uitgewerkt, goed gebalanceerd, uitstekende cursus materialen. Kan het warm aanbevelen!

De performance testing training geeft een goede basis voor mensen met weinig tot geen ervaring hierin. Ik vond het theoretisch gedeelte een meerwaarde. Meestal wordt dit overgeslagen in andere trainingen, maar in dit geval gaf het een duidelijk beeld van 'hoe, wat en waarom'. Natuurlijk werd het theoretische daarna ook aangevuld met voldoende praktische oefeningen. Roy is een goede, geduldige leerkracht die voor elke leerling met vragen of problemen de nodige tijd neemt.

Het was een leerzame training, ik heb van te voren een training gevolgd bij coursera. Alleen was het zeer op de basis gericht en bij Testsmith kreeg je meer diepgang. Daarnaast ook de redenatie om bepaalde methodes toe te passen. Best practices worden ook met name behandeld tijdens de training. Daarnaast is het interpreteren van de data ook een onderdeel van de training.

Had graag een iets uitgebreidere handleiding (naslagwerk) bij de training gehad, om e.a. na te kunnen lezen. Maar de linken zijn een handig alternatief.
