The Usage of Performance Testing for Information Systems

The main focus of this paper is the possibility of the performance testing for information systems. The authors' proposal focuses on steps, which perform the performance testing itself. The individual steps of their proposal have been mapped for each phase of the software testing standard IEEE 829. To visualize the process of testing, the model was outlined using UML diagrams. Testing is an essential pre-requisite for successful implementation of software product. It belongs to one of the most important phases of software life cycle and each system must be tested. Testing can be done by either manual or automation testing.
