Why is Load Testing Essential for Web
Applications?
Mobile testing, desktop testing and web site
testing are different types of testing activities
and each type has its peculiarities. Web
applications are usually meant to work with many
customers in various environments. It is very
important for a web site to cope with these
tasks. That is why web site performance issues
must be considered during the development and
testing process.

Why is Load Testing Essential for Web
Applications?
Web sites are often created in little
environments with minimum hardware. A web
application may have one web server and one
database server. Many companies consider such
amount of hardware sufficient and economically
feasible during the development life cycle and
first time after release, when few customers use
the site.

The number of users will grow and together with
it the load on the application will increase. To
cope with the load the site will need more
hardware. If not, the customers will experience
inconveniences, such as low speed of page loading
or time-outs. If the addition of more computers
is allowed by the application structure, it will
be easy to increase the application performance.

Otherwise, a software testing company will have
to do significant modifications of the web site
structure in order to increase its capacity. It
is always expensive and time consuming. To avoid
such inconveniences it is necessary to plan
carefully web site testing and make sure
that load testing is considered in it.
