We at Loadero regularly plan, implement and execute performance tests for clients which has led to us acquiring plenty of first-hand experience on the topic. Within this article we want to share with readers exactly what performance testing is, why it is valuable, as well as cover several factors that should be taken into consideration when deciding on the tests' implementation.

At some point, your development team may be considering implementing load testing (also known as stress testing) as part of your software testing process. Load testing validates that your web app is able to withstand a large number of simultaneous users, decreasing the chance that any traffic spikes will bring down your services once deployed. These stress tests can be highly granular, giving you the opportunity to test run virtually unlimited strategies before they are set into the wild.

As businesses continue to digitize, the importance of load testing has surged, with the market witnessing a significant rise in the adoption of load testing tools. According to a recent report, the global load testing market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.5% from 2021 to 2026, reflecting the increasing demand for reliable and scalable applications.
