Impact of slow load time on website performance

An estimated 4.4 billion in revenue loss is recorded annually due to poor web performance.

Impact on Revenue / Sales:
  • If an e-commerce site makes $100,000 per day, a 1-second page delay could cost you $2.5 million in lost sales every year.
  • 1 second of load lag time would cost Amazon $1.6 billion in sales per year.
Main Issues:


Consequences of slow page load:

Introduction to Postman API Testing

 Postman API:

  • Postman is an API Development Environment that helps developers easily test and work with APIs.
  • It is used for backend testing where we enter the end-point URL, send the request to the server, and receive the response back from the server.
  • It provides an easy-to-use interface for developing, testing and debugging REST APIs.
  • Postman also includes a comprehensive library of pre-defined requests and response objects, making it an ideal tool for quickly testing and prototyping APIs.
Request Methods:
  • GET - Get requests are used to retrieve information from the given URL.
  • POST - To send the new data to an API.
  • PUT - This method is used to update the existing data.
  • DELETE - This is used to remove or delete the existing data.

API test actions:
  1. Verify the correct HTTP status code.
  2. Verify response payload: Check valid JSON body and correct field names, types, and values - including in error responses.
  3. Verify response headers: HTTP server headers have implications on both security and performance.
  4. Verify correct application state: This is optional and applies mainly to manual testing, or when a UI or another interface can be easily inspected.
  5. Verify basic performance sanity: If an operation was completed successfully but took an unreasonable amount of time, the test fails.

HTTP Status Codes:

The Essential Performance Testing Metrics Every Developer Should Know

  1.  Processor Usage: Time spent by the processor to execute non-idle threads.
  2. Memory use: The available physical memory to process on a system.
  3. Disk time: It is the time taken by the disk to read or write a request.
  4. Bandwidth: Bits per second used by a network interface.
  5. Private bytes: A specific number of bytes allocated to a particular process.
  6. Response time: The time between the user’s request and the first response character.
  7. Throughput: Rate of requests received per second by a network. (The formula is Throughput = (number of requests) / (total time). )
  8. Maximum active sessions: Maximum number of sessions that may stay active at once.
  9. Thread (user) counts: Determining the well-being of the application by checking the number of running and active threads.
  10. Latency - JMeter measures the latency from just before sending the request to just after the first response has been received.
  11. Think Time - the time between two transactions of user actions. 
    (Login -> Think Time -> Search -> Think Time -> Logout). 
    The average thinking time could be in the range of 3 to 10 seconds for a normal user.
  12. Error rate - Measures the number of errors that occur in each request.
  13. Network latency - Measures the time it takes for a request to travel from the client to the server.
  14. Transaction time: Measures the time it takes for a transaction to complete.
  15. Resource utilization: Measures the number of resources used by the server to handle requests.
  16. Memory usage: Measures the amount of memory used by the server to process requests.
  17. Load test scalability: Measures how well the server can handle an increasing amount of requests.
  18. Page load time: Measures the time it takes for a web page to load.
