How do you measure system performance?
Two ways to measure the performance are:
- The speed measure – which measures how fast a computer completes a single task.
- The throughput measure – which measures how many tasks a computer can complete in a certain amout of time.
Which test evaluates the performance of system?
Performance testing is a testing measure that evaluates the speed, responsiveness and stability of a computer, network, software program or device under a workload. Organizations will run performance tests in order to identify performance-related bottlenecks.
What are the types of performance testing?
There are 5 main types of performance testing.
- Capacity Testing.
- Load Testing.
- Volume Testing.
- Stress Testing.
- Soak Testing.
What are system metrics?
System metrics are measurement types found in the system. Each resource that can be monitored for performance, availability, reliability, and other attributes has one or more metrics about which data can be collected.
What is performance validation testing?
Performance validation involves checking the performance at every stage to prove that the performance is at the level you desire (this level being your predetermined SLAs). Validation requires that performance is meeting or exceeding the levels you previously set.
What is breakpoint testing?
A breakpoint is a location in your script or keyword test where you want the script or test to pause during execution. Once execution is paused, you can check the state of the test, its output and its variables.
What are the 7 basic units of measurement in the metric system?
The seven SI base units, which are comprised of:
- Length – meter (m)
- Time – second (s)
- Amount of substance – mole (mole)
- Electric current – ampere (A)
- Temperature – kelvin (K)
- Luminous intensity – candela (cd)
- Mass – kilogram (kg)
What is monitoring matrix?
This matrix is intended to help direct the selection of monitoring activities according to data objectives and available resources. Within each monitoring activity, there is also often a range of data objectives and resources needed, with more intense data objectives requiring more resources.
