Track: Performance Testing
The concept of risk-based software testing is not new. Software test practitioners have long recognized that prioritization based on risk assists selection from innumerable potential test cases, and frequently adopt strategies inspired by principles of enterprise risk management. Unfortunately, an opportunity is missed when software testers only consider rudimentary risk evaluation principles and not the well-proven business structures and practices that have evolved in professions with a richer risk management experience. Performance testing can benefit greatly from such experience. In this session, you will receive valuable performance testing advice from a veteran financial auditor. The result of this advice is a simple but effective approach which can give direction to test strategy, build knowledge, and prove value.
