Performance Testing is verifying the system’s performance
requirements like -response time, Transactional throughput
and no of concurrent users. Performance testing is used to
accurately measure the End-to-End performance of a system
prior to Go Live.

Answer / mahesh sv
Timing for both read and update transactions should be
gathered to determine whether system functions are being
performed in an acceptable timeframe. This should be done
standalone and then in a multi user environment to determine
the effect of multiple transactions on the timing of a
single transaction.

Performance testing is nothing but checking the server
responses (i.e,how much time the server has taken to
process a request),monitoring and Tunning .

In how many ways we can convert a load test into stress test ?
How can we know now we counduct load testing?
What are the 5 icons appear in the buttom of the controller windows?
How do you identify the performance bottlenecks?
Does any one know how to over come the problem of "monitoring the load generators over firewall". We are able to use these machines for load generation, but are not able to monitor the measurements of these machines. When tried to add these machines to the windows resources, we were getting the error "Monitor name :Windows Resources. Cannot connect to machine stresstestxp6:62043. Reason: The network path was not found." Also note that, we are able to ping/telnet the LG from the controller, but not the vice versa Is there any router settings to be made or any other configuration has to be done?
Why is Load Runner called as State of Art Tool.
what are the objectivies of performance testing and what is tuning?
A good link for loadrunner scripting ?
suppose in ur company one new project is came for testing applictaion.. duration 1 year.. so,with in one week manual tester role starts and qtp(any) testers role starts..and others role starts,,,,BUT WHEN THE PERFORMANCE TESTER ROLE STARTS... in the midle of the project or ending of the project..and how many months it takes to starts the load runner tester role begins?
Where do you set automatic correlation options?
laod runner user guide ?
Dear Gurus, I have an interview in a company in Chicago and my latest project has the following description can anyone let me know what would be the QUESTIONS that can be asked from the following. Thanks,  Developed test cases and test plans and analyzed the test results using for LoadRunner.  Involved in Load/Performance Testing  Created LoadRunner Scenarios and Scheduled the Virtual user to generate realistic load on the server using LoadRunner.  Created and implemented Performance tests using Mercury Interactive LoadRunner.  Enhancing the scripts using Generator and performed Parameterization and Correlation to meet the requirements.  Involved in performing load and stress test on the application and server by configuring LoadRunner to simulate hundreds of virtual users and provided key metrics to the management.  Configured and Using Performance Monitor to monitor and analyze the performance of the server by generating various reports for CPU utilization, Memory Usage, load average etc.  Involved in conducting stress test and volume test against the application using LoadRunner.  Used Quality Centre to invoke the scripts and initially performed the baseline testing and organized all the scripts systematically and generated reports.  Performed regression testing for every modification in the application using Win Runner.  Involved in performance testing of server’s load and scalability by creating multiple Virtual Users by using Load Runner Virtual User Generator component.  Created detailed test status reports, performance capacity reports and graphical charts for upper management using Load Runner analysis component.  Involved in parameterization of script using VuGen in Load Runner.
