Quotes:
-
Ian Molyneaux, Micro Focus: ?My major motivation for putting pen to
paper was the abject lack of reference material for the budding or
seasoned performance tester. There were a lot of publications on
software testing as a discipline but nothing focused purely on
application performance. With this book, I?ve aimed to erase the
popular misconception that performance testing is just another form of
functional testing, as it really is a separate discipline with its own
unique challenges.?
-
B. Franklin, Amazon reviewer: ?I am building a new performance testing
practice at my company. This book is the most comprehensive writing I
have found on the topic of application performance testing. The book
flows well and is replete with valuable metrics and graphs that have
been of great benefit to the task at hand. Additionally, the book will
serve as a beneficial source of reference for future performance
testing engagements.?
