About the Instructor:
| Saravanan has nearly 14+ years of rich, varied and extensive experience in Performance Testing. His impeccable passion for sharing his knowledge has motivated to take-up Technical Training. He has 14+ years of real time experience and 7+ years Technical Training experience. During this knowledge sharing travel, he has taken multiple batches of performance testing tools like Loadrunner (Certified ), Jmeter, Neoload (Certified ), Dynatrace (Certified ), Appdynamics, Performance Engineering and trained 700+ students via different modes (Online, classroom).He is “Azure foundation certificate AZ900″ certified profession. |
| I am able to Record, Replay back, Add transactions & Add Check Points, then why should I take this course? This course is much deeper than that. Students reported that they were able to troubleshoot the issues by themselves after attending the course. Also, reported that the course helped them to break the interviews confidently. Lots of C functions, LR functions, conversions etc…will be discussed. If you are lead, you will understand what NFR’s to collect from client and exact process to follow during project implementation.

Thank you Saravanan sir, It was a great course journey. You explained each and every topic very well. I would definitely recommend everyone who is interested in learning performance testing. Apart from mentor all the supporting team of Isha training are very cooperative in sharing the recorded videos and required data in time. -Patil AnithaIts a good topic to learn and I have gained a lot of knowledge from this and as a performance tester I think it would help me a lot in the future for becoming an expert in this. – Prashanth E.Trainer is giving excellent class. Good knowledge on subject – MamdouhExcellent explanation of Performance testing topics. Very useful for beginners as well as for the experienced people to revise the basics – AnonymizedIts a great course and absolutely love how the teacher explains the course very clear and precise. I will be definitely be taking other courses in the future!. – Michael S.The course is really helpful no prior knowledge is needed to understand. I have gotten to understand each and everything till now. Thankyou Sarvanan Sir for providing such a valuable content. – Sony S.At first I feel its not good, but after going through few sections i realized its very valuable content. Thank you – Hemasekhar |

Course syllabus:
Module 1: Introduction to Performance Testing
Performance testing fundamentals
- What performance testing is and why it is required.
- Functional testing versus non-functional testing.
Types of performance testing
- Load testing, stress testing, scalability testing and endurance/soak testing, Volume testing
- When to use each test type and what each test is intended to reveal.
Key terminology and application architecture
- Response time, latency, throughput, TPS, hits per second and error rate.
- Concurrent users, virtual users, think time, pacing
- Client-server, two-tier, three-tier and n-tier architecture.
- Roles of web servers, application servers and database servers.
- HTTP/HTTPS request-response basics.
Practical exercise
- Review a sample web application architecture.
- Identify user journeys and performance requirements.
- Explain the difference between registered users, concurrent users and virtual users.
Module 2: Introduction to LoadRunner Architecture
LoadRunner overview
- LoadRunner Introduction
- Overview of supported protocols and protocol selection considerations.
Core components
- VuGen: recording, script generation, replay and script enhancement.
- Controller: scenario creation, VUser management, scheduling and execution.
- Load Generator: generating virtual user load locally or remotely.
- Analysis: reviewing results, graphs, reports and performance trends.
Module 3: Installation and Configuration
Environment setup
- Installing or accessing VuGen, Controller, Analysis and Load Generator components.
- creating a sample script.
VuGen fundamentals and protocol selection
- Virtual User concepts and the VuGen interface.
- Creating a new script and selecting an appropriate protocol.
- Overview of Web HTTP/HTML, Web Services, REST API and TruClient protocols.
- Single-protocol and multiple-protocol considerations.
Recording a web workflow
- Recording browser-based application activity.
- Understanding generated requests, responses and script code.
- Recording options
- Runtime settings.
Recording modes and script structure
- HTML-based versus URL-based recording.
- Understanding vuser_init(), Action() and vuser_end().
- Reviewing generated code and replay logs.
Practical exercise

- Think time, lr_think_time() and the impact of user pacing on workload.
Practical exercise
- Enhance the recorded login and shopping workflow.
- Add transactions, parameterize test data, validate expected responses and insert realistic think time.
Module 5: Correlation – Basic to Advanced
Correlation fundamentals
- What correlation is and why dynamic server-generated values must be handled.
- Static versus dynamic values in requests and responses.
- Common examples: session identifiers, authentication tokens and CSRF tokens.
- Recognising dynamic values by comparing recording and replay data.
Manual and automatic correlation
- Identifying left and right boundaries in server responses.
- Using web_reg_save_param_ex() to capture dynamic values.

Common real-world issues
- Script replay and correlation failures.
- Parameterisation and test-data problems.
- HTTP 401, 403 and 500 responses.
Practical exercise
- Review a sample performance report, identify likely bottlenecks and recommend next diagnostic steps.
Module 8: End-to-End Real-Time Project
Project: E-commerce application performance test
- Business flow: launch application, log in, search products, view details, add to cart, update cart, checkout and log out.
- Scripting: record workflows, correlate dynamic values, parameterize data, add transactions and validations, configure runtime settings and replay.
Scenario execution
- Create a Controller scenario and add VUser scripts.
- Configure VUsers, Load Generators, ramp-up, steady state and ramp-down.
Analysis and reporting
- Review response time, TPS, throughput, errors and VUser behaviour.
- Compare findings with requirements and document limitations.
- Prepare a concise performance test report with recommendations and conclusion.
Illustrative test stages
- Baseline: 5 VUsers.
- Load: 50 VUsers.
- Endurance: discuss or demonstrate sustained load; a meaningful soak test may require execution time beyond the classroom project slot.
Module 9: Interview Question and Answer Preparation
Note: Recorded sessions of web services, LRE will be provided along with this course.
