for Load Testing/Performance testing first you need to know
the objectives of testing, what all the business
requirements in terms of response time which is a user
concern, throughtput which is a business concern, resourse
utitlization which is a system concern. These three are the
main constraints. Then knowing the entrance criteria and
exit criteria for performance testing. Various types of
tests such as smoke test(initial test for performance test.
If the application passes this test, then undergoes the
remaining tests), capacity test, reliability test,
endurance test, spike test, stress test. Then regarding
tool you should know the components of the LoadRunner such
as VuGen(how to create scripts, parameterization,
correlation), Controller(creating scenarios, assigning
vuser to loadgenerator, running them), Analysis(making the
reports by seeing graphs and records)
