System and method for variation testing for performance test

摘要

A performance testing framework enables multiple components working together to test a deployed application automatically in an unattended manner and to analyze the test results easily. At very high level, the performance testing framework can run performance tests on a tested system with one or more variations without user intervention and save the test results and configuration metadata to a database for later analysis. Each of the variations is composed of a set of logical dimensions and values associated with each of those dimensions to be tested.
