Performance and Load Testing Services

IB Boost has extensive experience with performance testing, having created the ORQA test automation platform and running the commercial TestZoo service, which offers massively scalable distributed performance testing for websites and applications in the cloud with real-time analytics.

It is imperative to identify and understand potential application performance issues that will keep your software applications or websites from meeting the performance requirements your users expect. IB Boost will help you design a performance testing strategy to do just that, from documenting performance benchmarks and user expectations, to identifying bottlenecks and developing a resolution plan.

Running the tests and capturing output alone is insufficient and IB Boost can help you analyse and compare the data to benchmarks and industry standards, including identifying the bottlenecks that need to be addressed according to priority. With a fully scalable performance testing solution, the ability to process large volumes of data is as critical as running the test and IB Boost's experience in aggregating and analysing this through the TestZoo service allow these services to be leveraged.

IB Boost can advise on the testing strategy, tool selection, test planning and management, and implement and execute performance tests using our testing platform or the most suitable tools for the requirements.

Based on the needs identified during strategy development, IB Boost will advise on the best tools to utilise to make sure your systems are operating and will continue to operate at their best with expected peak and average loads over time. These solutions may be out-of-the-box or could be bespoke solutions based on your needs, timescales, and financial constraints. We can support with building a business case for these tools and obtaining stakeholder buy-in when necessary.

IB Boost can support with implementing the chosen tools to develop appropriate performance tests for the services and applications under test. With our ORQA tool, along with experience with other tools such as HP LoadRunner, Gatling, Selenium, JMeter and others, we can implement effective performance tests rapidly and integrate these into your development and testing schedule.
