Client Response Time, Server Response Time, Testing the Performance.

Performance testing can be done by speed of a computer, network, software program, device or web application. It can be used to measuring the response time, throughput and resource utilization of the server by the system functions. The number of users hitting the application will be large and the site might not behave as it does for a single user the user might experience various issues while it was concurrently used the user could be face the various issues like internal server error, timed out error, application crash and slowness of the application. For example : when there was a big sale announced for snapdeal. The number of users hitting the application on that particular day is huge 100% higher than the usual users. Performance testing was the solution that could have prevented them from this situation. If they had planned for a proactive performance testing with the anticipated load they could have avoided this failure on their big day sale.
