Common Issues Found In Performance Testing

Common Issues Found In Performance Testing

Testing Environment

Most of the issues will be because of the test environment because the test environment might not be properly configuration as per the production. Down stream system might not be configured in the environment. Servers are not configuration as per the production or most important the configuration of the server might not be same as the production.

Wrong Use of the Test Data

Important part of execution will be using the data. Because if you use the wrong data for your script then during the execution you will see the error and you will not achieve the target. So understanding the correct data for the test is important.

Wrong Workload Modelling

Need to prepare the workload correct keeping all the factor in mind, such as production and test environment set up. Number of server used in both the environment. Usage of each functionality. So understand this factory before we prepare the workload model.

Not Using the Best Scripting Practice

Using the hard coded values in the scripts. Using different script for each functionality where we can modulaize the flow with same script. Not using the think time and miss use of think time inside the transaction.

Response Time

High response time of the application during the execution because of many factor .

Capacity

System is not able to handle the higher load when the user increase. So customer need to plan the capacity of the application.

Reliability

Application is not running properly with different operation system and with different browser.

CPU Utilization

CPU utilization of the system high. Which is reaching more than the threshold  because of it the system performance is degraded.

Memory Utilization

Memory utilization of the system high. Which is reaching more than the threshold  because of it the system performance is degraded.

Disk Utilization

Disk utilization of the system high. Which is reaching more than the threshold  because of it the system performance is degraded.
