Web Testing

In our previous article on WAPT, we discussed how the WAPT Pro Performance Testing tool can be used for website performance testing. However, if you want to generate a much higher load on the website, then you must use the x64 Load Engine release from the WAPT team.

This tutorial and ultimately the testing tool is very useful for performance testers.

This is in fact very crucial for testing time-critical applications such as stock management systems which get refreshed every minute and create a huge load on the website as there are thousands of users accessing the website at the same moment.

For such applications, stress testing with more than 10,000 users is a basic test requirement.

Why do most manual testers fail while testing websites for performance? Given below are a couple of reasons for the failure:

• They don’t have the proper tools to test the website for performance and
• They don’t have the skills required for performance testing.

Does that mean you should wait until your stakeholder reports the performance glitches in a web application you developed? Definitely not! Many testers are good at testing websites manually and they report almost every defect while testing against standard test cases.

BUT, when the same tester performs load or stress tests, they get stuck either at resource (required tools) level or at the skill level.
