The Trap of Performance Testing

It doesn’t matter if you are developing software with Java, .NET, PHP or another language. If you need to do performance testing – it will be a challenging task, especially nowadays with microservices architectures, clusters and very complex systems. This presentation addresses the most common pitfalls of performance tests. The presenter shares his experience gained through demanding experiments and quite often frustrating failures. Although most of the examples come from the JVM programming world, the aim of this presentation is to show some universal problems, laws and best practices that rule this very specific kind of testing.
