What is performance testing scenario ? What it contains.

Scenario: A scenario describes the events that occur during a testing session. A

scenario includes a list of machines on which Vusers run, a list of scripts that

the Vusers run, and a specified number of Vusers or Vuser groups that run

during the scenario.

We creates the scenario depending on NFR document/SLA. In NFR/SLA contains the what are all performance testing type need to do.

Below are the high-level business scenarios:

Scenario 1: Performing light load testing on the following scenarios with the load distribution shown below.

Script 1: With 33 % load

Script 2: With 67% load

Scenario2: Performing Load testing on the below scenarios with 100 users, with the load distribution shown below.

Script i: with 33 % load of 100 Virtual users

Script ii: With 55% load of 100 Virtual users

Script iii: With 12% load of 100 Virtual users with the below scenario settings

Ramp up: Every 2 for 4 sec

Ramp down: Stop every 5 users for 10 sec

Duration: 2 hours

Think time: 14 sec

Pacing: 9 sec

With the following ramp-up and ramp-downs:

a. Ramp up and stay at max users for few hours (Fig - 2)

b. Single hump, ramp up, stay at max users for few hours, and then ramp down (Fig ‑ 3)

c. Multiple humps during ramp up / ramp down (slowly ) (Fig - 4)

d. Spikes, multiple ramp up / down within short interval of time (Fig - 5)

Scenario 3: Performing the Peak Load test on the below scenarios between 8 AM to 11 AM and 12:30 PM to 4 PM with 100 users, with the load distribution shown below.

Script i: with 33 % load of 100 Virtual users

Script ii: With 55% load of 100 Virtual users

Script iii: With 12% load of 100 Virtual users with the below scenario settings

Scenario 4: Perform the longevity test for Scenarios 1 and 2 for longer duration with the following settings.

Ramp up: Every 2 for 4 sec

Ramp down: Stop every 5 users for 10 sec

Duration: 18 hours

Think time: 14 sec

Pacing: 9 sec

Scenario 5: Perform the load test for Scenarios 1 and 2 with rendezvous point (concurrent users) with 10 users.

Ramp up: Every 2 for 4 sec

Ramp down: Stop every 5 users for 10 sec

Duration: 1 hour

Think time: 14 sec

Pacing: 9 sec

Scenario 6: Perform the Stress test for Scenarios 1 and 2 beyond the SLA for Scripts I and II.

Ramp up: Every 3 for 7 sec

Ramp down: Stop every 5 users for 10 sec

Duration: 2hour

Think time: 14 sec

Pacing: 9 sec

Scenario 7: Performing the spike test on the below scenarios with 100 users, with the load distribution shown below.

Script i: with 33 % load of 100 Virtual users

Script ii: With 55% load of 100 Virtual users

Script iii: With 12% load of 100 Virtual users with the below scenario settings
