| 摘要 |
The present invention enables an automated testing of computer software applications for efficiently determining the quality and/or performance characteristics of the computer software applications and assists testing designers when determining software application scalability and performance under load. Embodiments of the present invention may be implemented to, for example, determine how many test servers are required to test computer software applications for correct function under the load of many concurrently active users, and periodically test and/or monitor computer software applications for quality control and/or other purposes. Additionally, embodiments of the present invention may be implemented to, for example calibrate a set of one or more test servers for testing a computer software application. |

1. A method comprising:
determining, by a computer system, a count of concurrently running virtual users for performing a transaction on a software application, wherein each virtual user included within the count is enabled to perform the transaction during a virtual user session; determining, by the computer system, a test regime for testing the software application based on a determined count of concurrently running virtual users; transmitting, by the computer system, the test regime from the processor to a test server, the test server being enabled to communicate with the computer system and execute the test regime; receiving, from the test server by the computer system, a first set of test results generated by execution of the test regime by the test server; analyzing, by the computer system, the first set of test results to determine a level of virtual user throughput for the test regime; determining, by the computer system, a maximum virtual user count for the test server a size of a set of one or more test servers to perform the test regime responsively to the analysis; and calibrating, by the computer system, the set of test servers required to execute the test regime, the calibration of the set of test servers including transmission of the testing regime to the set of test servers. |
