Environments that differ from production produce confident numbers that do not transfer. Attack the challenge that currently blocks releases rather than working down a list. How to Spot Make-or-Break Cloud Testing Challenges Early Project leaders and QA engineers understand that… Read more »
15 minutes readKey takeaways Latency between the load generator and your servers is added to every measurement. Generate load from the regions your users are in, or the numbers describe a route nobody takes. Report latency separately from server processing time so you can tell them apart. Latency: The Overlooked Factor in Cloud Load Testing Why Raw… Read more »
