Cloud Based Testing: Need of Testing in Cloud Platforms
Vinit B. Mohata · 2013
Cloud computing is delivery of service rather than product. Cloud testing is a form of software testing in which web applications that use cloud computing environments. Cloud computing in general defined as delivering of services to clients based on internet it delivers services are like resources, software, information etc. Cloud-testing leverages cloud computing resources and models to enable all aspects of load-testing in a highly cost-effective manner. Cloud computing is a new approach of distributed computing where it uses cloud infrastructures for automatically supporting the user requirements. Testing is performed in three distinct areas of cloud they are infrastructure, platform and service. Cloud infrastructure will help to identify configuration and optimization opportunities for each cloud vendor. In this paper we discuss about cloud based testing and need of testing in cloud computing. Systems can be scaled to a high factor at a low operational cost. Cloud testing solutions are compatible with multiple form factors. The Cloud enables accessible testing assets globally at any time.
