Continuous Performance Testing - Does Speed Kill ?

Continuous Performance Testing – Does Speed Kill ?

 by Mark Tomlinson

Automate. Rinse. Repeat.

Every day at every hour and every minute there are developers writing code, committing code to the repo, building snapshots, checking out stuff, debugging it, profiling it and generally making things happen continuously.

So, why not have performance testing be part of that continuous world?

That is the debate about the value and pragmatics of integrating performance and modern automated build and deployment strategies into your continuous integration and continuous delivery process automation.

Mark Tomlinson covers what to think about in your attempts to accelerate performance through automation, and shares technical tips and advice as you consider the pitfalls of trying to balance speed and quality.
