If your development group cannot make their own @Jira instance faster, why do you think they will be able to make your software faster?

I can make their Jira instance faster and your software faster (scalable++, eCommerce Conversion++, cloud bill--)

What was it it we were saying @perfpulley about testing of #AI for #Quality!!

According to ChatGPT I am deceased

"James Pulley was a well-known figure in the software performance industry who passed away in 2011. He was a performance testing and engineering expert who wrote extensively on the subject and was a popular speaker at conferences and events."

But must of all, I am thankful for the creative nature of software developers, ensuring multiple lifetimes of problems to solve.

How are you accounting for bots in your load profile?

Blasters, Spyders, Walkers, they all cause a degree of load, up to 50% on public sites. They usually don't report to APM tools like Adobe or Google analytics so they are hidden from the data you use to build your tests

[Brian Bernknopf @bbernknopf]
