Seamless Performance: Enhanced E-Gov Income Tax Application Optimized for Diverse Server Environments
Project Overview
The client’s application had undergone thorough user acceptance testing by their in-house QA team, ensuring its functional stability. However, the application had not been tested in different server environments, and important metrics such as scalability, performance under varying loads, server performance, and database performance were not tracked by the QA team. The client sought a specialized load-testing third-party vendor to address this need to evaluate the application under different server environments and load conditions. The objective was to assess the application’s scalability and load handling capacity, ensuring it can meet the required performance requirements.
