Overview of Executing Performance Tests

As described earlier, there are three types of performance test cases that are typically executed: response time, stress, and reliability testing. It is important to differentiate between the three because they are intended to measure different KPIs (key performance indicators). Specialized members of the testing and system administration organizations, who have ownership of the system architecture and infrastructure, typically manage performance tests.

Figure 18 illustrates the process for performance test execution. The first step involves validating recorded user-type scripts in the system test environment.
