Performance Testing: Methodology for Determining Scalability of Web Systems

Deep Manishkumar Dave, Amit Bhanushali

Abstract: This research focuses on the critical role of performance testing, particularly load testing, in evaluating web systems' robustness under varying loads. It highlights the methodology centered on request and response times, using https://mu.ac.in/ as an example. The paper recognizes the broader significance of performance testing in life-critical and mission-critical domains. It presents key findings from a college website load testing case study, demonstrating the impact of increased user loads on response time and scalability limitations. The study underscores the importance of systematic load testing in identifying performance bottlenecks and advocates its adoption for ensuring optimal web system scalability.

Keywords: Performance testing, Application performance, Cloud computing, Web testing, Web application, Load testing, Request time, Response time
