The document discusses a performance testing solution provided by Compassites for their client WPA. Compassites developed a scalable architecture using Amazon Web Services to generate large loads of up to 40,000 simultaneous users over 1 hour to test WPA's servers. The solution distributed the load generation across Amazon EC2 instances in different geographic locations. It collected results from the load generating machines and servers and sent them back to Compassites for analysis. The solution helped overcome issues with generating large loads from a single location and provided WPA insights into performance bottlenecks.

- 2. users, ramp up strategy, duration of tests, test mix, desired load generation etc). The Compassites Load Test Architecture would take care of next steps in an automated fashion. It invokes Amazon AMIs of desired capacity from desired geographic locations on the Amazon cloud. Copies the load test data to one of the controller machines in EC2 instance running on Linux. It creates a folder structure to collect the results from various AMIs. The controller machine would then copy the test data to various AMIs and then manage the entire load testing. It would distribute & manage the load among AMIs over the test run. Once the load test is done, it would collect the results and send it back to the Compassites test invoker machine. Technology Used JMeter Benefits & Results Important graphs and metrics are immediately rendered which are used to analyze performance bottlenecks. The load test plan helps to overcome the perpetual network bandwidth problem.
