FAQs about Performance & Load Testing

  • Performance testing simulates real-world scenarios, analyzing a website or other digital assets’ responsiveness, load time, and overall performance under regular usage conditions. Performance testing also evaluates success on a wide range of devices and network speeds. Americaneagle.com expertly leverages industry-leading tools like JMeter, Lighthouse, and Selenium to conduct thorough client-side (browser) and server-side performance testing, identifying areas for optimization and ensuring a fast, efficient browsing experience for website users.
  • Load testing is designed to stress-test backend systems by simulating high-traffic scenarios, such as peak demand for ecommerce order placement or other dynamic requests. Load testing anticipates a wide range of dynamic traffic to assess a specific infrastructure's ability to handle surges in demand. A well-executed load test will push resource utilization levels to their breaking point. As long as that breaking point is beyond the peak load expectations of the tested digital solutions, your business can be confident in asset performance and reliability. That performance translates directly to satisfying user experiences as well.
  • Load testing should ideally be integrated into the development process as early as possible, preferably concurrent with feature implementation. This approach allows for timely identification and resolution of performance issues. While it may require periodic updates to testing scripts, due to evolving URLs or request/response structures, early and consistent load testing is preferable, in addition to the mandatory pre-launch load tests. Performance issues identified during pre-launch load tests may leave insufficient time to address them effectively.
  • For load testing, we recommend scheduling it pre-launch for all new development. Load testing should also be scheduled before deploying significant code changes or redevelopment efforts. For ongoing operations and digital solutions, a consistent cadence should be established. Our preference is once-a-month, as databases and web servers can degrade over time.
  • Yes. The primary focus of the stress tests (amplified load test) is to identify the maximum capacity, or the breaking point, of servers (back-end).
  • As an award-winning global leader in web development and digital solutions, our teams can quickly identify and resolve opportunities to improve website performance. This can be tracked by improvements in not only overall Mobile/Desktop scores into the 90s in many cases, but also improved scores for more granular KPIs like Total Blocking Time (TBT), Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS), Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and few others.
  • Following load testing with Americaneagle.com, the maximum levels of service without degradation is no longer a guess. For example, we have load tested and assured performance capabilities ahead of a client advertising on the biggest telecast of American Football. This client was excited to know the people converting to website visits due to that ad spend would enjoy an optimal user experience with their brand.
