Load Testing

How CloudQA Load Testing Works

The journeys you record for regression testing become realistic load scenarios. CloudQA runs a mix of them in many real browsers at once and reports where performance slips and where it breaks.

Inside CloudQA

CloudQA is made up of optimized components that each perform a specific QA task. At its heart is the CloudQA Recorder, a workflow recorder and editor that captures even complex web application workflows and works with modern client-side technologies such as Angular, React and Ember, Telerik controls and more.

One recording, three ways to protect your application

Regression and functional testing

The core CloudQA platform. Recorded workflows run as automated tests on every release, and each run also captures page performance metrics.

Synthetic monitoring

Key user journeys run on a schedule against your live environment, so you see when performance degrades or a critical flow breaks.

Load testing

Available as a service on request. CloudQA opens many real browsers and runs a mix of your scenarios within a short period, showing how your servers cope and where they break.

What you get from a load test

Response and render times

Timings for every step of every journey as load increases, from the user’s point of view.

Errors under load

Failed steps, error pages and timeouts, with the load level at which they started.
