Why is Performance Testing required?

Performance-Testing

Helps in checking the reliability of the application – Different types of performance tests are conducted to check if the application is reliable and provides correct and consistent output.

Helps in the identification of performance bottlenecks – Performance tests help in the identification of the performance bottlenecks in the application that slow down the system.

Helps in evaluating the scalability of the application – On running performance tests with a different number of concurrent users, we can check if the application is capable of scaling up to a higher number of users.

Helps in checking the robustness of the application – With stress testing, we can check the robustness of the application at a workload higher than the expected.
