Performance Test Services
Whether they know it or not, your online customers are instinctively passionate about non-functional requirements. Get your website consistently performing well and they’re likely to remain loyal. Get it wrong and they’ll leave you for a competitor with a few clicks of the mouse.
The difference between keeping a customer and losing them in droves can be measured in a matter of seconds. No matter what your monitoring tools are telling you, it’s your customers, not you, who have the last word when it comes to judging your website’s performance.
In response to this challenge, Trust IV have launched blucap™.
What is blucap™?
Blucap™ is an automated performance testing service. It creates load and performs end-to-end testing of the application and the underlying infrastructure, over the web, from the customer’s perspective. Critically, blucap™ gives your business the confidence that your customers will enjoy excellent online performance post-live.
Traditional Testing Approaches
Traditional approaches to performance testing are beset with expensive management challenges:
- The need to invest in licenses for testing tools.
- The need to purchase and maintain hardware and software to control and inject load.
- The costs associated with training internal users on specialist testing tools, or the expense associated with employing and accommodating 3rd party contractors, often from an offshore base.
- Difficulties producing meaningful test results.
These challenges are further complicated when timescales slip, causing costs to rise and delivery to be put at risk.
Blucap™ is Different
Blucap™ is an innovative new, all-inclusive, performance testing service that avoids all these problems. It’s delivered from the UK on a simple, transparent, pay-as-you-use basis. If your application can be safely exposed to the internet, then you will be able to use blucap™ to test the performance.
The service includes the following by default:
• Expert coding of customer journey(s) through your application.
• Concise, easy-to-understand reports that clearly document your test results.
• A choice of testing tools and provision of all necessary hardware to control and drive the tests, regardless of platform.
Optionally, the service can also deliver test data (according to the demands of your application), ongoing monitoring, enhanced reporting and in-depth analysis by our own experts.
How we test your website
We use proven tools to model user behaviour. Our experts ensure that the user journey really mimics the way your users interact with your site. We then ensure that the user journey is scalable - this is the area where many performance test solutions fall down due to poor science behind the scalability models.
Once built, we check the journey prior to loading into our dedicated server farm where we inject the load into your application to meet your testing requirements.
All results are captured and reported back to you via your personalised results portal.
