Compared with common performance testing tools, Performance Testing Service (PTS) provides several key advantages: a stable and reliable platform, advanced features, realistic traffic simulation, and extensive supporting resources.
Stable and reliable platform
- PTS was developed by the High Availability Team of the Middleware Technology Department of Alibaba and has undergone five years of extensive testing and enhancement across the entire ecosystem development, which ensures a high level of stability of the platform and related technologies.
- PTS is an enhanced version of the single-link and full-link performance testing platforms that has successfully supported the entire ecosystem of Alibaba for up to five years.
- PTS is widely used across various industries, including e-commerce, multimedia, finance and insurance, logistics, advertising, and social networking.
Powerful features
- As a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution, PTS eliminates the need for additional installation or deployment.
- Provides an easy-to-use cloud-based recorder suitable for mobile App scenarios.
- Allows you to perform simple coding to format API and URL parameters.
- Allows you to create and manage complex testing scenarios in a virtualized manner and supports login status sharing, parameter passing, and business assertions. Additionally, the extensible command features of PTS allow you to use various testing strategies, such as think time and traffic throttling.
- Supports the requests per second (RPS) mode and the concurrency testing modes.
- Supports dynamic adjustment of traffic on a per-second basis, and is capable of creating bursts of up to one million queries per second (QPS).
- Provides robust reporting capabilities that present real-time data from the performance testing clients in multi-dimensional breakdowns and can automatically generate reports for review and export.
- Allows you to debug the testing APIs and scenarios and provides detailed log information during the performance testing process.
Realistic traffic simulation
- Simulates traffic from hundreds of cities across different telecom operators in China and even international traffic sources to closely mimic actual user traffic and provides reports and data that closely reflect real user experiences.
- Provides high load testing capabilities and can generate a load of up to 10 million RPS.
