Performance Testing 2024

Introduction to Loader.io performance testing tool

At the end of year 2023 we decided to test the performance of Probench using the loader.io tool for one of our clients which has more than 4000 signatories responding to the survey.
loader.io is a simple and powerful cloud-based load testing tool. Using loader.io, you can quickly, easily, and freely simulate large numbers of connections to your web apps and ensure performance.

We have performed 2 types of tests:

1. Clients per second: The "Clients per Second" test type is similar to "Clients per Test", but instead of specifying the total, you specify the number of clients to start each second. A 20-second test with 1,000 clients per second is the same as a 20-second test at 20,000 clients per test.
2. Maintain client load: This test allows you to specify a from and a to value for clients. If you specify 0 and 10,000 here for example, the test will start with 0 clients and increase up to 10,000 simultaneous clients by the end of the test. The key difference here is that each client keeps making requests after finishing, instead of stopping. This type of test generally makes a lot more requests.

Running the test for Multiple users on page having multiple dependent conditions and logics including page save for "Clients per second" test type over 5 min on production site of the client and achieving 0% error

[100 clients over 5 min]

[150 clients over 5 min]

[250 clients over 5 min]

[500 clients over 5 min]

Running the test for Multiple users on page having multiple dependent conditions and logics including page save for "Maintain client load" test type over 5 min on production site of the client and achieving 0% error

[0 - 100 clients over 5 min]

[0 - 150 clients over 5 min]

[0 - 250 clients over 5 min]

[0 - 500 clients over 5 min]

Running the test for Multiple users on page having no dependent conditions and logics including page save for "Clients per second" test type over 3 min on production site of the client and achieving 0% error

[100 clients over 3 min]

[150 clients over 3 min]

[250 clients over 3 min]

[500 clients over 3 min]

Running the test for Multiple users on page having no dependent conditions and logics including page save for "Maintain client load" test type over 3 min on production site of the client and achieving 0% error
