Why Care?

The performance of many of today’s websites depends on forces beyond their control. Third parties can often be the driving force behind your most important user journeys – and when they slow down or stop, it’s your sales that will suffer. Many sites provide feeds to comparison sites, or to partners providing, for example, map inserts, traffic feeds, news feeds and other live 3rd party information.

All of these need to be load tested either directly as a web service or as part of your website load testing through user journeys to ensure this element of your offering is not your bottleneck.

What we offer:

Site Confidence engineers can build web service scripts to interact directly with the APIs touching the relevant part of your infrastructure with the right level of stress to ensure that it withstands varying levels of load.

With Webservices, Web APIs and mashups being an important part of transactional websites today, the performance of your, XML and JSON transports can be as important as that of your ‘real’ user journeys. Site Confidence’s load testing services can validate against standard XML schemas as well as delivering our usual level of reliable, repeatable performance data.
