How did your Internet Store-front perform this Christmas?
Christmas is by far the busiest time of year for online retailers, were you one of the companies who lost out due to the poor performance of your Web site.

blucap™ is a totally new online performance testing service introduced by Trust IV based on extensive experience working with the development teams responsible for some of the UK‘s busiest transactional Web applications. Using industry standard performance testing tools and a simple pay-per-use pricing model blucap™ enables developers to schedule end-to-end tests of the application at critical stages of the project, without the need for investment in expensive software and dedicated in-house testing teams. A 1,000 user stress test could be as little as £3,000.
Accessed via a secure customer portal, users are able to purchase test tokens, schedule new and repeat tests for almost limitless numbers of virtual users and access their test reports online, as often as is necessary throughout the life of the project. No specialist knowledge or experience of the testing application is required; blucap’s testing consultants develop the tests to replicate the typical end-user journey from arriving at the home page through to the completion of a transaction under extreme load conditions. Once developed these test scripts are stored indefinitely to ensure that they can be accurately reproduced if re-testing is necessary.
Regardless of whether your online storefront coped with this year’s increased traffic levels or not it is no guarantee that it will in the future; just a small change to the application or the underlying infrastructure can unwittingly introduce a new bottleneck in the system so it is wise to maintain a scheduled testing regime even after the application has gone live. The Trust IV blucap™ service provides the ideal platform for a routine maintenance programme providing peace of mind all year round that your site will cope with whatever is thrown at it.
