Abstract

Performance testing our applications is either neglected or we use expensive and time consuming to learn commercial tools that often produce so many metrics and raw data that it can be difficult to derive meaningful information to improve application performance. What can agile teach us about doing performance analysis? This talk provides an overview of available open source performance testing tools and discusses minimalistic approaches to testing web sites and web services using tools including JMeter, Grinder, WebTest, SoapUI and a Groovy DSL.
