Cloud-Testing is a new approach to Load-Testing and Testing in general. This new approach leverages Cloud-Computing resources to increase testing functionality and significantly decrease costs.
In Load-Testing practice you would want to subject your software to an equal or greater amount of virtual users as expected in real production environment. You would then want to monitor the performance under the specified load, usually on a target-test environment identical to the production environment, before going live.
With traditional Load-Testing the cost of building an environment and the priority of Load-Testing versus on-going production tasks, are bringing decision-makers to make compromises and find less adequate solutions to the problem of validating performance under load and throughout time.
With Cloud-Testing - compromises are no longer necessary. Cloud-Testing leverages Cloud-Computing resources and models to enable all aspects of Load-Testing in a highly cost-effective manner.
CloudIntelligence provides for numerous Cloud-Testing services. You can generate unlimited load using JMeter in the Cloud. You can use VirtualLabs to simulate your production servers. You can use CloudMon to monitor your target servers and applications in real time. For further information we recommend reading our Cloud-Testing white paper.
