Performance testing focuses on the volume, load, scalability and stability of the underlying software architecture and hardware in real-time environments. This includes the various software components (COM, DCOM, EJB, Servlets, etc.), software and application servers (database, Web, LDAP, etc.), hardware servers and network components that make up today’s complex software systems.
In other words, it is a type of testing intended to determine the responsiveness, throughput, reliability, and/or scalability of a system under a given workload. Performance testing is commonly conducted to accomplish the following:

– Assess production readiness
– Evaluate against performance criteria
– Compare performance characteristics of multiple systems or system configurations
– Find the source of performance problems
– Support system tuning
– Find throughput levels
