Scripting and Automation
Efficiently Test and Validate System Performance
Scripting and Automation are essential for efficient performance testing and validation. At Assure Shield, we create automated test scripts to simulate user interactions and validate system performance, ensuring your applications run smoothly and efficiently.
Understanding Scripting and Automation:
Scripting involves writing automated test scripts that simulate real-world user interactions with your application. Automation ensures these scripts are executed consistently and efficiently, allowing for comprehensive performance testing without manual intervention.
Key Benefits:
Efficiency: Automate repetitive tasks to save time and resources.
Consistency: Ensure consistent and accurate test execution for reliable results.
Scalability: Easily scale testing efforts to cover a wide range of scenarios and user loads.
Methodologies:
Agile:
Continuous Integration: Integrate automated scripts into the CI/CD pipeline for regular testing.
Iterative Development: Develop and refine scripts iteratively to enhance test coverage and accuracy.
Waterfall:
Post-Development Automation: Create and execute automated scripts after development is complete.
Detailed Documentation: Maintain comprehensive documentation of scripts and automation processes for future reference.
Tools Used:
LoadRunner: Provides powerful scripting capabilities for simulating complex user interactions.
JMeter: Effective for creating and executing automated performance test scripts.
Selenium: Popular for automating web application testing.
Cucumber: Facilitates behavior-driven development (BDD) with automated test scripts.
HP Performance Center: Offers advanced scripting and automation features for performance testing.
