All About Performance Testing – The Best Acceptance Criteria

First of all, let us see what is the meaning of the term “Performance Testing”:

For general engineering practice, “Performance Testing” refers to evaluation & measurement of functional characteristics of an individual, a system, a product or any material.

However in software industry parlance, the term “Performance Testing” widely refers to the evaluation & measurement of functional effectiveness of a software system or a component, as regards its reliability, scalability, efficiency, interoperability & its stability under load.

These days a new science by the name “Performance Engineering” is emerging in IT industry & Performance Testing / Acceptance Testing are being viewed as its subsets. The performance engineering lays prime emphasis on covering the performance aspects in the system design itself i.e. right from the beginning & more important is that well before the start of actual coding.


Why Software Industry lays so much emphasis on Performance Testing:

The key reasons are:


1) Performance has become the key indicator of product quality and acceptance consideration nowadays in a highly dynamic & competitive market.  

2) Customers are becoming extremely demanding on quality front & have clear vision of their performance objectives.

3) These days, every customer is looking for greater speed, scalability, reliability, efficiency & endurance of all applications – may it be multi tier applications, web based applications or client server applications etc. etc.
