Build Your Custom Performance Testing FrameworkTechWell
Performance testing requires knowledge of systems architecture, techniques to simulate the load equivalent of sometimes millions of transactions per day, and tools to monitor/report runtime statistics. With the evolution from desktop to web and now the cloud, performance testing involves an unparalleled combination of different workloads and technologies. There is no one tool available—either commercial or open source—that meets all performance testing needs. Some tools act as load generators; others only monitor system resources; and many only operate for specific applications or environments. Prashant Suri shares the essential components you need for a comprehensive performance test framework and explores why each component is required for a holistic test. Learn how to develop your custom framework―starting with parsing test scripts in a predefined format, iterating over test data, employing distributed load generators, and integrating test monitors into the framework. Discover how building your own framework gives you flexibility to challenge multiple performance problems—and save thousands of dollars along the way.

How To Transform the Manual Testing Process to Incorporate Test AutomationRanorex
Although most testing organizations have some automation, it's usually a subset of their overall testing efforts. Typically the processes have been previously defined, and the automation team must adapt accordingly. The major issue is that test automation work and deliverables do not always fit into a defined manual testing process.
Learn how to transform your manual testing procedures and how to incorporate test automation into your overall testing process.
Arthur Hicken Chief Evangelist of Parasoft @ PSQT 2016 discusses:
• What the shift from automated to
continuous means
• How disruption requires changes to how
we test software
• Addressing gaps between Dev and Ops
• Technologies that enable Continuous
In this presentation which was delivered to testers in Manchester, I help would-be performance testers to get started in performance testing. Drawing on my experiences as a performance tester and test manager, I explain the principles of performance testing and highlight some of the pitfalls.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.
Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024Globus
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.
Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

2. Performance Testing
• Performance testing is the process of determining the
speed or effectiveness of a computer, network, software
program or device.
• This process can involve quantitative tests done in a lab,
such as measuring the response time or the number of
MIPS (millions of instructions per second) at which a
system functions.

4. Issues with the tools
• Several issues have been observed related to tools when conducting performance testing:
tools compatibility with the software under test
tools installation
tools setup
tools flexibility in doing test both for client and server side
response time generated by the tools
To demonstrate and
prove that response
time from different
performance testing
tools is different
To suggest potential
reasons or root
cause behind
response time
differences
To answer the question:
“Why do different performance
testing tools produce different
response time?”

5. • Most previous work on performance testing tools comparison ignored
on different result reported by each tools
• There is no work so far to understand why they are different against
tools
• Each tool claims they are better than the others but none able to
justify the performance testing results against the real world.

14. Potential Reasons for Response Time Differences
• Some fundamental reasons:
capturing and simulating the load used for the performance test
method of calculating metrics gathered by each tool
language to develop the tools
architecture of the respective tools
• Architecture differs greatly:
Tool A and C developed by using Java and they require JVM to run so the
value setting for Java Heap Size plays a role to generate the best user load
without putting extra burden to the client
Tool B architecture relies on web relay daemon facility allowing CORBA-
based communication to be transmitted between machines during executing
the performance test
Findings
12-05-2015 14CSPA Seminar
15. Conclusion
• Different performance testing tools do give a different response
time.
• Currently, there is no tool able to tell us if application is fast
enough in term of user experience in a reality
• It is crucial for performance testers to understand that there is no
tool that is able to automate and tell us about the full picture of the
application's performance that is going to be in a real world
• It is back to human brain to analyze the information given and
performance testing tools is just one of the way that can be used to
achieve that.
