Ensure that you achieve the performance required by your critical systems at the right cost. Performance testing focuses on verifying that the set requirements for critical systems are met, ensuring that you neither have too few nor too many resources allocated. By meeting these requirements, the business can in turn achieve its overall goals.
What is Performance testing?
Performance testing, alongside functional testing, enables testing of a system in its entirety. This approach verifies if the architecture was well-conceived, detects concurrency issues, and assesses whether the system can scale and remain stable over time. Simultaneously, it allows evaluation of alternative solutions for architecture, business logic, components, and configuration to choose the best path forward.
The challenges lie in formulating requirements, understanding how different components interact, especially without prior production statistics to size and configure them.
Building a test environment to draw conclusions about how the production environment will perform, generating test data, analyzing results, and providing recommendations based on these findings are other challenges.
A comprehensive test implementation includes analysis, design, implementation, execution, reporting, and post-processing.
Here’s how we work with performance testing
Lemontree employs a process-oriented approach to establish a performance testing function within your organization, focusing on introduction, deployment, and follow-up.
A critical aspect here is establishing communication channels among various stakeholders such as developers, architects, test managers, requirements analysts, business units, and suppliers.
Consulting services in performance testing
Our offerings in the field of performance testing cover assignments, projects, and deliveries:
- Requirement Specification and Needs Definition

Performance testing can effectively integrate with Service Virtualization to simulate dependencies on systems under development or those temporarily inaccessible for other reasons. This approach enables early detection and resolution of performance and load testing issues.
Lemontree provides Performance Management as a service, assuming full responsibility either as Testing as a Service (TaaS) in the cloud or managed by the client internally. For Performance Testing, we utilize leading products from OpenText (formerly MicroFocus and HP) and Tricentis. Tool selection is guided by the specific questions that need answers but remains a crucial factor. Based on client requirements and preferences, we conduct a thorough analysis and evaluation to select the appropriate tools. Our toolbox includes Open source tools as well.
OpenText LoadRunner and Tricentis NeoLoad serve as comprehensive load testing tools. Both offer extensive support for commonly used protocols in the market such as .Net, Citrix, Oracle, and SAP, in addition to web/http/https protocols. For mobile applications, we utilize LoadRunner Network Virtualization to simulate network impact on performance.
For monitoring purposes, we employ tools like OpenText SiteScope, Prometheus/Thanos, Splunk, or application- and OS-specific functionalities.
For larger organizations requiring high concurrency in performance testing, LoadRunner Performance Center may be suitable. LoadRunner PC is part of OpenText ALM, Application Lifecycle Management.
Through these comprehensive services and tools, Lemontree ensures robust performance testing solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients, ensuring optimal performance and reliability of their systems.
