ABSTRACT:

Managing risk and uncertainty is what load testing is all about. Changes made to production website systems are responsible for more than 80 percent of downtime and performance problems. Yet change is constant when you operate a web site. In too many cases - because of the cost, complexity and rigidity of many load testing tools - developers make a major change, then simply watch and wait without directly measuring the effect of load in a production setting. The first customers who come to the website are the guinea pigs. If everything works, great, the e-commerce team can go on with their lives. If response time suffers and transactions hang, well, those customers are sacrificed for the greater good. Discover the new approach offered by the Gomez RealityLoad XF offers the power, flexibility and value to finally remove this wait-and-see approach.
