Tricentis NeoLoad Benefits

Test Process Consultant - PeerSpot reviewer
SME (Subject Matter Expert) at Maersk

Encountering performance issues during our upgrades and post-production deployment, we explored available tools in the market and pinpointed Tricentis NeoLoad as a viable solution. Conducting a Proof of Concept (POC), we scrutinized problematic jobs and critical scenarios where processing time was expected to be minimal.
After the successful POC, we seamlessly incorporated Tricentis NeoLoad into our environments. The solution proved instrumental in the early detection of integration and access issues during the POC phase itself. Currently, we are actively leveraging NeoLoad for efficient execution of technical upgrades and comprehensive testing of major releases.

Tricentis NeoLoad has improved the organization I'm in as a performance testing tool that's easy to implement. My team found that Tricentis NeoLoad had no issues regarding the learning curve, including learning and using its features, versus LoadRunner, which had a long learning curve.

The result collation feature of Tricentis NeoLoad, including pulling the load generators or different remote machines from the cloud and using those with the test machines, was also fascinating and helpful to my organization.

The significant improvement to the company was in cost savings which is the main reason we migrated from LoadRunner. NeoLoad is about half the price.

NeoLoad helped us to transition from load testing to continuous performance measurement. It is integrated into our CI/CD pipeline. We implemented performance testing like you would have unit or functional tests. Every day, we get information if something happens in our application that affects the performance in a negative way.

NeoLoad is a robust and versatile tool. With plugins for CI tools like Jenkins, NeoLoad is configured to automatically trigger small load tests on modules each time there is a build update. This has enabled us to identify performance issues for our clients at a very early stage. It has undoubtedly an impact during larger scale enterprise performance tests when all the modules are integrated and tested as cost to fix performance issues increases with later stages of deployment.

We can quickly do scripting with NeoLoad, which makes it easier to give timelines and meet them. We can easily tell a client that within this much time, we can provide the end-to-end scripts, and we'll be able to do the execution along with all the activities.

I had a requirement to test a mobile application for corporate that is used by users across the globe. I needed to do the test setup quickly to generate load across the region, and to do so with a solution that was cheaper than what we had. A NeoLoad license of four days with load generation from the cloud across regions helped to do the setup in three to four days and perform the testing.

The first benefit is that it's quite cheaper. In the market there are mainly three tools which dominate: JMeter, LoadRunner, and NeoLoad. JMeter is open source. LoadRunner is quite expensive but has quite good features. NeoLoad is competitively quite cheaper compared to LoadRunner, and it provides great features, except in some areas. For instance, it doesn't allow some SAP applications. There are some areas where it's a little bit tough but other than that, it's quite good.

With the simplicity of the test design interface, little domain knowledge is required for each scripted application, so we are able to generalize all of the performance testers to the point that any tester can update and execute any script instead of having individual domain experts who may be unavailable or busy. This has allowed us to keep more scripts updated easier than ever and keep a constant flow of performance tests in the pipeline, removing some dependence on human interaction.

Performance testing is done by testing frameworks in which NeoLoad is the driver of load. The ability to extend the tool is crucial for organisations. Our test framework is composed out of NeoLoad as a centralised component surrounded by Tableau for analytics and AppDynamics for deep-dive diagnostics. This load test framework enables the team to more quickly test, find and resolve issues and system bottlenecks.

First and foremost, it took out the painful resource hours out that went in to manually correlate each and every action of the script while using LoadRunner. NeoLoad does not require much of scripting efforts, and correlation and parameterization are fairly easy.
