| Performance Testing – The Past, the Present, and the Future |

The technologies that existed in the past and the way they were used are very different from the ones that exist today. Performance testing has also progressed from being a reactive and poorly executed IT service which determined the cause of an application slowdown, to a more fundamental step in ensuring the inherent flexibility and reliability of an application thus maximizing business opportunity. In view of the fact that application developers work on individual modules and stand-alone applications - hence lacking the insight into performance considerations - the need for adhering to ‘process compliance’ for short term and long term performance testing projects is increasing. Organizations are approaching independent testing entities to address their growing needs and challenges. Whilst focusing on these changing trends, this presentation highlights current technologies and the future options for tool development, process compliance, the ever-changing requirements of the performance testing labs and the evolving open source technologies to optimize costs. Testing entities are also exploring new options in terms of leveraging their global infrastructure and teams for blended shore testing and even reporting the performance statistics live. After all, adopting newer testing methodologies for varying technologies is a key focus for large organizations looking to achieve operational excellence.
