Need for a cloud platform to build end-to-end performance testing


Environment availability of ready-to-use cloud infrastructures along with the required tooling is important to build end-to-end performance testing environment. The cloud environment supports the provisioning of the required infrastructure with a choice of configuration, testing tools, reports, and operational support. Many organizations have cloud and provisioning of environments on public and private clouds.

The typical components of a cloud platform include the following:

  • Provisioning a development and test environment on cloud

  • A portal for development and test teams to track the status and usage of environments and offer them self-service

  • Use of environment templates for quick provisioning of environments

  • Run processes to provide operations support to the development and test teams

  • On-demand provisioning of tools (for example, HPE Loadrunner)
