Our take on quality assurance: At the heart of our philosophy Is the belief that quality should be the cornerstone of every product, every project, and every partnership we enter into.
Why Performance Testing?
Performance testing is a systematic evaluation method for software systems. At STS, we scrutinize crucial KPIs to identify gaps and rectify errors, ensuring your software functions optimally. Our performance testing includes analysis of:
User Capacity
Response Times
Load Handling Capability
Bytes per second
Latency
Our performance testing services offer a comprehensive assessment of your software's responsiveness, stability, scalability, reliability, speed, and resource usage. We ensure your software delivers optimal performance under varying loads and conditions.
Types of Performance Testing at STS
We offer a range of performance testing services to ensure your system's stability and optimal operation under anticipated stress. These include:
Load testing
We simulate high user loads to determine how your system performs under peak usage conditions.
Spike Testing
We test your system's resilience against sudden surges in user requests to ensure it can handle traffic spikes.
Stress Testing
Our stress tests probe your system's upper limits, identifying any potential weak points under extreme load conditions.
Volume testing
We test your software's performance in handling large data volumes, validating your system's storage capacity.
Scability testing
Our tests assess your software's scalability, focusing on non-functional attributes such as performance and reliability.
Endurance testing
We evaluate your application's endurance by subjecting it to sustained loads over extended periods, checking for potential memory issues.
