EVALUATION OF PERFORMANCE OF SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS

摘要

A method and system for evaluating performance of software applications. Steps in a first software application within a first web site are mapped to respective similar-function steps in a second software application within a second web site. Measures of performance of: each mapped step in the first software application, the respective similar-function steps in the second software application, and other steps in the second application are determined. A measure of performance of the first software application is determined, based on the measures of performance of each mapped step in the first software application. A measure of performance of the second software application is determined, based on the measures of performance of the respective similar-function steps and the other steps in the second software application. Improved performance is obtained for the and/or first software application by utilizing the measure of performance of the first and/or second software application, respectively.

1. A method for evaluating performance of software applications, said method comprising:
determining, by one or more processors of a computer system, measures of performance of each step of a plurality of steps in a first software application, measures of performance of respective similar-function steps in a second software application to which the steps in the first software application have been mapped via a mapping, and measures of performance of other steps in the second software application, wherein the first software application is at a first computer within a first Internet web site, wherein the second software application is at a second computer within a second Internet web site, wherein the mapping includes associating both each step in the first software application and the respective similar-function step in the second software application with a respective first task of a plurality of first tasks, and wherein the first and second Internet web sites are different Internet web sites; determining, by the one or more processors, a measure of performance of the first software application based on the measures of performance of each mapped step in the first software application; determining, by the one or more processors, a measure of performance of the second software application based on the measures of performance of the respective similar-function steps in the second software application and of the other steps in the second software application; and improving, by the one or more processors, performance of: (i) the first software application by utilizing the measure of performance of the first software application, (ii) the second software application by utilizing the measure of performance of the second software application, or (iii) both the first software application and the second software application by utilizing the measure of performance of the first software application and the measure of performance of the second software application, respectively.
