Not Testing from Outside the Firewall? It'll Come Back to Haunt You Performance testing measures response times, transaction rates, and other time sensitive requirements. The goal of performance testing is to verify that the performance requirements have been achieved. Performance testing is usually executed several times, each using a different "workload" on the system. This article discusses how to validate system performance, find bottlenecks, and tune system performance.

Testing in the XP Paradigm: A Case Study The application in this case study is a new Web application developed for a Fiduciary Trust company. The company had been assured by their eXtreme developers that testers were unnecessary in this Web project. Since the risk of project failure would be measured in millions of dollars in lost business, someone thought it a good idea to risk a few hundred on a second opinion. This turned out to be a good risk for them and a really good opportunity to measure the
cost of not testing. This paper gives the account of what happened when this application went on line, and presents
a review of the test log, and the bugs reported. Because of the nature of the project and the type of failures that occurred, this project provided a unique opportunity to calculate the cost of not testing and the value of testing in terms of customer support dollars that would have been spent without testing and the that were saved because of testing.

Testing Microsoft .NET Web Services What the heck is a Web service and how does one go about testing it anyway? A Web service provides encapsulated functionality with an interface for sending and receiving information, but it doesn't have a user interface. Rather, everything is done using HTTP requests and SOAP methods. The best way to test these interfaces, then, is simple: programmatically. This session introduces you to the concept of Web services and how they work. You'll also see how to create tests using different languages. This is a crucial first step that'll get you going down the right path.

Performance Testing for Web Services Web services is a hot topic. Ever wonder, what are they really- or how can we test for the performance and scalability of these new types of Web applications? For instance, they certainly present new challenges for load testing, since they're not browser-based aplications. Rather, Web services are applications distributed throughout the Internet. This session discusses these questions and shows you how to prepare for the coming of Web services and their various permutations, all from a performance testing perspective.
