Performance & Non-Functional Testing

What Performance Testing Reveals About Your System

Can your application handle peak traffic and unexpected load spikes?

How will your infrastructure scale as user demand grows?

Will your system maintain stability during extended operation?

Where are the performance bottlenecks that could impact user experience?

What is the maximum capacity your system can handle before degradation?

Does your application meet performance requirements under normal operating conditions?

Performance Testing

Our rigorous performance testing methodology validates your system's behavior under various conditions, ensuring it meets both functional requirements and performance expectations

Load Testing

We simulate expected user volumes and transaction loads to verify your system can handle target capacity for sustained periods. This ensures your application performs reliably under normal and anticipated peak conditions.

Stress Testing

We push your system beyond normal operational capacity to identify breaking points and upper limits. This reveals how your application behaves under extreme conditions and helps establish maximum capacity thresholds.

Endurance Testing

We execute prolonged testing sessions—typically 72+ hours—under sustained load to detect memory leaks, resource exhaustion, and degradation issues that only emerge over extended operation periods.

Capacity Testing

We determine the maximum number of users or transactions your system can support while maintaining acceptable performance levels, providing critical data for infrastructure planning and scaling decisions.

Failover Testing

We validate your system's ability to seamlessly transfer operations to backup systems or redundant components when primary systems fail, ensuring business continuity and minimizing downtime.

Disaster Recovery Testing

We verify that your disaster recovery procedures work as designed, testing backup restoration, failover mechanisms, and recovery time objectives (RTO) to ensure your business can recover quickly from catastrophic failures.

Scalability Testing

We evaluate how effectively your system scales with increased load, additional users, or expanded infrastructure—whether scaling vertically (more powerful hardware) or horizontally (distributed architecture)—to ensure cost-effective growth.

Baseline Benchmarking & Trend Analysis

We establish performance baselines that serve as reference points for your application's expected behavior. Through continuous monitoring and trend analysis, we track performance metrics over time, identifying gradual degradation, the impact of changes, and emerging patterns that could signal future issues. This proactive approach enables informed capacity planning and prevents performance problems before they affect users.

Other Non-Functional Testing

Beyond performance, we validate critical quality attributes that ensure your application meets enterprise standards

Reliability/Soak Testing

We conduct extended testing under realistic load conditions to validate system stability, reliability, and consistent performance over time. This identifies issues like gradual memory leaks, connection pool exhaustion, or disk space depletion that manifest only during prolonged operation.

Compliance Testing

We verify that your application adheres to industry standards, regulatory requirements, and organizational policies—including accessibility standards (WCAG), security compliance (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS), and performance benchmarks specific to your industry.
