Load Testing With the Cloud

Everyone, it seems, is talking about the cloud. As with past hyped trends in IT, it is important to see past all the talk and look for concrete ways to take advantage of this new technology’s flexibility and scalability to save time, reduce costs, and improve the way your organization works. Learn how the cloud is revolutionizing load testing and the advantages it provides in many situations for ensuring your web applications performs well in production. It also covers the limitations of a test strategy that relies solely on cloud-based testing, highlighting the need for a complementary internal load testing solution. After describing several best practices for load testing in the cloud, this white paper outlines key capabilities to look for in a load testing solution. Without the right tools in place, simply moving your testing activities to the cloud will likely not deliver the results necessary to justify the move. Understanding how to apply the right tools and practices to make the most of the cloud is fundamental to cloud-based testing and vital to ultimately going live with total peace of mind.
