Load Generation
Michael J. Sydor · Apress eBooks · 2010
This chapter discusses what is perhaps the weakest link in the application life cycle—automated testing, or load testing , 1 as part of the QA process. From my firefighting experience, I have found that the more I know about a stakeholder’s QA practices, the easier time I will have getting visibility into their operational issues. Understanding their gaps in application testing often leads me directly to what is troubling them in production. Visibility is what I use to both confirm their suspicions and reveal issues they had not considered.
