Performance Testing Solution Walkthrough

Load Testing Steps• Record the mobile user scenario• Configure test parameters• Run load test• Analyze the results

Recording a Mobile User

Simulation Techniques• Browser Spoofing- Over-ride user-agent string- Only applicable for mobile websites- Does not simulate mobile hardware or functionality

• Proxy Recording- Works with almost all mobile apps - Requires setting up mobile device to use a proxy

Setup the Proxy

Get Your Local IP

Local IP address on a Mac

Point Device to the Proxy

Defining proxy settings on an iPhone

Run the App

Real usage of a mobile app (CNN iPhone app)

Load Testing Steps

• Record the mobile user scenario• Configure the test parameters• Run test load test• Analyze the results

Define Test Parameters

- Number of Users - Number of Servers- Test Duration- Ramp Up Time- Load Server Geo Location(s)

Mobile Network Emulation

Define bandwidth and latency for each simulated user

Developer Integrations- Plug-ins for integration into agile / continuous integration tools- Full REST API for custom integration- APM integration for detailed application monitoring- Detailed error reporting- Fully automated spin up / down of dedicated servers- 100% compatible with open source scripting (JMeter)

Load Testing Steps

Detailed Reporting- Performance Testing KPIs- Error Report- Waterfall Report with Detailed Timings- Load Server Monitoring- Application Performance Monitoring- JMeter Logs
