A Developer's Guide to Continuous Performance Testing

Today’s fast-paced development environments require new approaches to testing. Enter continuous performance testing. Unlike traditional performance testing, automated continuous performance testing is part of every build, monitoring the application continuously under increased load. With continuous performance tests, organizations with lots of users can expect to improve the customer experience, prevent major outages, and find and resolve issues faster.

Cut Unnecessary Tests

Is your test suite running as efficiently as it could? @Titus Fortner explains why the number of tests isn't always the problem—it's the value they bring. Deleting tests that constantly fail and don’t provide useful data can significantly reduce your total execution time. Here's what to consider when refining your test suite: Ready to make your test suite more efficient? Watch this episode of Test Case Scenario to learn more.

Load testing tools: comparison of Loadero and LoadNinja

"Load, load testing, load test this, load test that, Loadero, LoadNinja, load, load, load... ugh, what should I choose?!'' - we can only imagine what the experience of choosing a load testing tool is like. The Loadero team has decided to ease the burden of choosing between testing tools by writing a comparison review about Loadero and LoadNinja. By the way, if you’re considering testRTC as an option too, we have published a similar article before, where we compared Loadero and testRTC.

It's especially gratifying after tackling a tricky bug or slogging through a tough feature. But those passing tests may be giving you a false sense of security. Often, bugs lurk in passing tests, undermining trust in the test suite and your application. Such tests can cause more harm than good, giving you a hearty pat on the back while hiding broken functionality.
