This 5-day immersion course is designed to
familiarize testing professionals with the
basics of the IBM Rational performance
testing tool. Testers can build, enhance,
and run scripts in a full-function Java IDE
that integrates with IBM Rational Software
Development Platform products. In addition
to class lecture, students will be asked to
complete labs to reinforce critical concepts
and tool functionality. The first two days
focus on the practical application of
Performance Tester to resolve common
performance testing challenges.
The advanced portion of the course is
designed to enhance a student's knowledge of
the performance testing lifecycle using IBM
Rational Performance Tester. Web-based
applications are the focus of the class,
during which students are provided insight
into the architecture of web-based
applications, implications upon test
planning, automation, execution, and
analysis. There will be an emphasis on
student exercises and labs applicable to
real-world web applications and challenges.
Extensive data correlation and
parameterization techniques are addressed in
the context of standard web clients, rich
web clients, and desktop web clients. The
course will require extensive Java
programming in order to address the needs of
business process automation and its
requirements to properly model an
application's end-user experience. |
• A tester who: has little or no coding
skills, limited test automation experience,
generally new to performance testing. These
testers may be responsible for: planning
performance testing projects and activities,
designing performance tests,
implementing/executing performance tests
using automated test tools.
• Users intending to be immersed within the
performance testing life cycle, including
the following: Performance Engineers, Test
Automation Engineers and Quality Assurance
Engineers |
At the end of the course, you will be able
to:
• Recall performance testing basics and
document your plan for performance testing
using a Workload Analysis Document
• Explore a training application (system
under test) and exercise it in conjunction
with Rational Performance Tester
• Use Rational Performance Tester to create,
run, and modify performance tests
• Use Rational Performance Tester to manage
test data using datapools and data
correlation
• Use Rational Performance Tester to enhance
tests with verification points, loops, and
custom code
• Use Rational Performance Tester to design
and enhance workload scenarios and schedules
• Use Rational Performance Tester to monitor
test execution and analyze results
• Understand the fundamentals of a performance testing methodology in conjunction with the IBM Rational Performance Tester software
• Recognize the challenges and solutions for testing different web application architectures
• Comprehend the essentials of analyzing end-user perceived performance and system performance with the goal of achieving optimal application scalability
