what is scalability testing?..

Answer / rajesh poojari - tavant techno

Scalability testing is to determine whether your
application scales for the workload growth. Suppose your
company expects a six-fold load increase on your server in
the next two months. You may need to increase the server
performance to shorten the request processing time to
better serve visitors. If your application is scalable, you
can shorten this time by upgrading the server hardware, for
example, you can increase the CPU frequency and add more
RAM. Also, you can increase the request performance by
changing the server software, for example, by replacing the
text-file data storages with SQL Server databases. To find
a better solution, first you can test hardware changes,
then software changes and after that compare the results of
the tests.
