  2. Agenda Market Drivers HP LoadRunner HP Performance Center

  3. Market Drivers Application Modernization

  4. Application Modernization was is People Process Technology

  5. Application Modernization is needs People • Collaboration • Tracking (auditing/versioning) • Multi-Persona support Process • Agility • Reporting • “Single point of truth” Technology • Innovation • Ease of use • New technologies

  6. Application Modernization is needs People • Collaboration • Tracking (auditing/versioning) • Multi-Persona support Management: Performance Center Process • Agility • Reporting • “Single point of truth” Automation: LoadRunner Technology • Innovation • Ease of use • New technologies

  7. HP Performance Center Solutions for management and automation of performance optimization HP Performance Center Family Performance Testing: LoadRunner / Performance Center VuGen Load Generator Controller Monitors Analysis ManagementFramework: Performance Center User/privilege management Infrastructure management Central repository Global access & collaboration Requirements & Defects Resource pooling & scheduling Diagnostics J2EE .NET SOA SAP Oracle

  8. Performance testing: HP LoadRunner & HP Performance Center What’s New in 11.0?

  9. HP LoadRunner The market leading solution for performance validation Reduce risk of deploying systems that do not meet performance requirements • Enables a consistent, repeatable processto: • Emulate production workloadto test a broad range of applications • Identify performance bottlenecks,diagnose the root causeof issues • Optimize application performancebefore deployment Reduce cost by predicting scalability and capacity and eliminating over-deployment Reduce time by shortening test cycle time. Accelerate delivery of high quality applications

  10. LoadRunner 11.0 What’s new? LoadRunnerTruClient Multi-level reporting New Protocols Environments & Platforms Miscellaneous

  11. The challenge: Scripting process Current scripting process • Sequential process takes time • Scripting expertise needed (especially for complex apps) • Protocol level scripts break with minor app changes

  12. The challenge: Scripting for web 2.0 apps New Web 2.0 technologies Web Server Data Server Client Services App Server Cloud • Many technologies, frameworks and toolkits • Very customizable – almost no “vanilla” usage • Dynamic, asynchronous behavior • Client-side processing and logic • Most testing solutions do not support all the customizations Web Server EDW Networks Web Server App Server Data Server Web Services Web Server

  13. INTRODUCING: LoadRunnerTruClient The revolutionary way of scripting modern apps NEW! Scripting engine embeddedwithin browser No correlations required! Data can be parameterized while scripting Interactive, dynamic scripting! Transactions, and logic can be added while scripting Supports all Ajax applications Automatic suggestion of automated steps

  14. LoadRunnerTruClient Benefits • Faster: Reduces test cycle time • Interactive, dynamic scripting: customize as you record • Especially relevant in Agile • Easier: Less expertise required • No correlations, no programming required • Ideal for beginners and less technical scripters • More robust: more re-use of scripts • Supports all AJAX based applications • Patentedsolution!

  15. LoadRunner 11.0 What’s new? LoadRunnerTruClient Multi-level reporting New Protocols Environments & Platforms Miscellaneous

  16. The challenge: Reporting Reporting for multiple personas • Tedious process • Consumes time • Introduces delays • Not efficient Generate reports from LoadRunner Manually add or remove graphs For each stakeholder persona Create multiple sets of report Manually convert to various formats

  17. LoadRunner: Multi-level reporting Reporting for multiple personas • Support for multiple report templates • Out of the box and customizable templates for various personas • Generates multiple reports simultaneously • Save in various formats such as pdf, etc. Create multiple templates Send to various personas

  18. LoadRunner: Multi-level reporting Benefits • Saves time required to create multiple reports • Makes creating reports much easier • Customized reports gives concise, easily-readable information • Increases visibility

  19. LoadRunner 11.0 What’s new? LoadRunnerTruClient Multi-level reporting New Protocols Environments & Platforms Miscellaneous

  20. LoadRunner 11.0 Platforms, Environments, Protocols • New protocols • New Microsoft Silverlight virtual user • New Java-over-http virtual users • New ServiceTest virtual user • Platforms and Environments • Support for IE8, Win 7, Win Server 2008 SP2 • 64 bit support (32-bit app) - for all components except recording)

  21. LoadRunner 11.0 What’s new? LoadRunnerTruClient Multi-level reporting New Protocols Environments & Platforms Miscellaneous

  22. LoadRunner 11.0 Miscellaneous

  23. Performance test management framework:HP Performance Center What’s New in 11.0?

  24. HP Performance Center The platform for enterprise-level performance testing • Globally accessible, centralized platform that enables consistent, repeatable processes for: • Test planning, scheduling, execution and reporting across multiple concurrent projects and multiple people • Defining performance requirements, tracking coverageand ensuring traceabilityto defects • Monitoring, analysis and diagnostics to identify and eliminate performance bottlenecks • Reportingin real time as well as trending across multiple tests and iterations Maximize productivity and collaborationin distributed teams through 24x7 web interface Maximize utilization of resourcesthrough pooling and sharing of licenses, hardware and software. LABEL GOES HERE Increase process efficiency, produce better quality applicationsvia Center of Excellence model

  25. Performance Center11.0 What’s new? Performance Requirements & Defects Next-gen platform for Center of Excellence Topology Miscellaneous Performance Center with HP ALM

  26. The challenge: requirements & defects Traceability and coverage • Performance requirements defined ad-hoc • SLAs/SLOs (Service Level Agreements/Objectives) • No reporting on requirements covered in tests • No tracking from defects to see affected requirements • Hard to track status & quality to business requirements

  27. Performance Center 11.0 Performance Requirements & Defects, Coverage reports Requirement coverage Performance Requirements Requirement status

  28. Performance requirements & defects Benefits • Save performance requirements (such as SLAs, throughput requirements, etc) with the project • Log and track issues as performance defects, and assign defects to specific people to fix • Complete traceability between performance requirements and defects to show what defect is affecting which requirement • Show the exact status of a requirement at any given time

  29. Performance Center 11.0 What’s new? Performance Requirements & Defects Next-gen platform for Center of Excellence Topology Miscellaneous Performance Center with HP ALM

  30. The challenge: Center of Excellence needs Collaboration • CoE with multiple people and multiple projects needs • Version control • Asset sharing across various tests and projects • Grouping of various projects together in logical units

  31.
