I always consider Test Analysis as the most important and technical part in performance testing rather than scripting and execution. Performance test result analysis requires your actual expertise. During the analysis phase, you can determine bottleneck and remediation options at an appropriate level – business, middleware, application, infrastructure, network etc. The LoadRunner Analysis tool is … Read more
The definition of Trend represents “a general direction in which something is developing or changing”. Trend analysis method can be applied to client, server and network metrics. Before understanding the Trends method, it is good to know about the WHIWH rule. Now, let’s get started with how you can understand the graph and identify the bottleneck using … Read more
This is a method of understanding the pattern of the graphs by analysing and comparing them and then concluding the result. This method consists of two parts: The best example to understand the Pattern Method is a Soak Test which helps to find out the memory leakage in the application. The soak test or Endurance … Read more
Eliminate method leads to filtering out certain requests, transactions or components from the list of culprits which cause performance issues. In the previous post, you read about the Drill Down method where we got an issue and continue the investigation until we got the root cause. But what will you do when you get more … Read more
Drill down method is used to concentrate on one bottleneck at a time and narrow down the focus to a component by drilling down till you get the exact root cause. It is pretty much like starting your investigation at one point and drilling down further to see what exactly is the problem. This method … Read more
You would have used the correlation for dynamic values while preparing scripts in Micro Focus LoadRunner. Have you ever heard about graph correlation? If your answer is No then refer to Graph Correlation post first. Because Graph correlation is the base of the ‘Correlate Method’. Graph correlation is a perfect feature of the Micro Focus Analysis … Read more
