Load testing of information systems: types and methods

N.I. Kakurin, N.A. Karpov, D.D. Rudenko

Abstract


The article is devoted to the analysis of types of load testing of information systems. A classification of load testing types is presented. An overview of each type is provided, along with descriptions of possible application areas and recommendations for selecting load models and additional metrics. Potential challenges encountered in forming the load profile are also identified. The material will be useful for specialists in the field of information system testing, as well as for engineers whose task is to achieve maximum efficiency of information systems
