Investigate performance testing

Abstract

In the modern-day workforce today, there is one central thing that is as important as it has ever been. And that is the word productivity. Performance is very important in modern’s society as the world is today far more corporately competitive than before as there are a lot of options, so it is important for the companies to make sure that they can test how they perform. In the modern day, a lot of software development is automated, and a popular automation tool is CI/CD pipelines , that have very popular tools for that job, like Gitlab or Jenkins, but how does it benefit anyone to have performance tests within these pipelines? Is it just a waste of space or are they useful? Could they be just tests of performance or is it more under the hood? This paper will tackle both performance tests and the dynamic performance test. Which will focus on historybased performance testing.
