CodeArts PerfTest Use Process

CodeArts PerfTest provides performance test services for cloud applications that are built based on HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, UDP, HLS, RTMP, WebSocket, MQTT, or HTTP-FLV. CodeArts PerfTest quickly simulates service peaks with a large number of concurrent users. It allows you to define the contents and time sequences of packets and supports complex combinations of multiple transactions. After tests are complete, CodeArts PerfTest provides professional test reports to evaluate your service quality.

You can complete a performance test in four steps listed as in the following table.

Table 1 Process

1. Prepare a Resource Group

2. Create a Test Project

3. Create a Test Task

4. View a Test Report

Prepare a test resource group for running the performance test.

NOTE:

Test resource groups are classified into shared resource groups and private resource groups. Shared resource groups are provided by the system by default, and private resource groups need to be created.

CodeArts PerfTest manages your test projects. Transactions, test tasks, and test reports are shared in the same project.

Use predefined test transactions to create performance test scenarios.

CodeArts PerfTest provides real-time and offline performance test reports for result analysis.
