Smoke Testing in LoadRunner

How to analyse Smoke Testing in performance testing?

A performance smoke test is a test designed to determine, if your application can successfully perform all of its operations under a normal load condition for a short time.
Benefits

  • Provides a quick assessment of whether a build or configuration is performing within a reasonable degree of deviation from expectations.
  • Enables you to quickly compare one build or configuration to another build or configuration that a performance smoke test was previously executed against.
  • Enables you to quickly determine if there are obvious and significant performance issues with a build or configuration.
  • Enables you to quickly provide data to do an initial prioritization of additional performance tests to be conducted against a build or configuration.
  • Helps to determine if a build/configuration is ready for additional performance testing.

Challenges and Areas Not Addressed

  • Does not provide a complete data set.
  • Many potential performance issues go undetected.
  • Is not suitable for predictive analysis or drawing detailed conclusions.
  • Results can easily be given more weight than they deserve if not reported properly.
