Web Seminar: Rise Above the Challenges of Performance Testing in the Clouds Let’s not kid ourselves. Conducting performance testing, and conducting it well, is difficult. And most of us are stuck running performance tests in suboptimal environments, from which results are often difficult to extrapolate in terms of predicting the behavior of a future production environment. No one can afford to run effective performance tests this way, especially if you’re faced with timeline and budgetary constraints. Join Scott Barber, an internationally recognized thought-leader in the field of performance testing, and Christian Romero, senior performance consultant for Hexaware Technologies, as they discuss some of the challenges of internally building and maintaining both load generation and performance testing environments. You’ll also gain insight on available software in the clouds. Join us Tuesday, January 31, at 2 p.m. ET.
