Performance Testing Training

Scope

The Performance Testing Training provides participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to accurately determine software performance requirements and conduct tests accordingly. This training covers a wide range of topics, from the fundamentals of performance testing and test levels and protocols to defining metrics and acceptance criteria, and applying performance tests using the JMeter tool.

Target Audience:

This training is aimed at software test engineers, QA professionals, system analysts, and other technical experts who wish to gain knowledge in performance testing. It is also suitable for professionals looking to effectively evaluate software performance using performance testing tools.

Training Content:

1. Fundamentals of Performance Testing:

• What is performance testing and why is it important?
• Types of performance tests

1. Performance Test Levels and Protocols:

• Performance test levels: Unit, Integration, System, Load, Stress, etc.
• Applicable protocols: HTTP, HTTPS, JMS, SOAP, REST, etc.
• Importance and benefits of performance testing at the service level

1. Defining Performance Test Metrics and Acceptance Criteria:

• Identifying and interpreting metrics
• Important metrics at the service level
• Definition of performance acceptance criteria
• Establishing acceptance criteria at the service level

1. Creating Performance Test Scripts with JMeter:

Methodology:

The training will be supported by interactive presentations, practical exercises, and real-life examples to help participants better understand the concepts. Practical applications conducted using JMeter will facilitate the translation of theoretical knowledge into practice, enhancing learning retention.

Prerequisites:

Participants should have basic programming knowledge, fundamental testing knowledge, and an understanding of networks and protocols.

Learning Outcomes:

• Learn the fundamentals of performance testing and best practice tools.
• Create effective performance test scenarios and scripts.
• Accurately define performance metrics and acceptance criteria.
• Design, execute, and analyze performance tests successfully using the JMeter tool.
• Understand dynamic data usage and how to apply this data in performance tests.
• Evaluate performance test results to identify bottlenecks and potential performance issues in the system.
• Apply learned concepts to real-world scenarios.

Training Environment:

The training will be conducted remotely with an interactive and participant-focused approach. Participants will receive training materials, sample scenarios, and practical exercises.

Training Duration:

The training is planned for a total of 2 half-days. Throughout the training, participants will engage in theoretical lessons, practical exercises, and group work to enhance their understanding of the course material.
