As software applications are used by a large number of users they need to be tested for performance, most specifically, for the quantum of load the application can take. Any software application should be able to handle a select number of users on a concurrent basis - critical for those belonging to finance, transport and commerce domains. A successful load testing methodology ensures that the site remains navigable, free of latency & downtime, and functional in all aspects.

With mobile applications flooding the market in ever increasing numbers, it is primarily the quality assurance factor among others that determines if they have an iota of a chance to be accepted by consumers. Hence, applying performance testing solutions on them before their market release or incorporating performance engineering as part of the entire SDLC can help in removing glitches, which otherwise could play spoilsport as far as achieving good customer experience is concerned.
