For the success of an e-commerce product, one of the determinative factors is its performance.

Even if functional testing[1] and security testing were performed thoroughly and did not reveal any major bugs, who can guarantee that a product will not refuse to work during heavy shopping hours? A competent software tester can. As practice shows, it is extremely important to thoroughly execute performance testing[2] of e-commerce products due to the visitors’ behavior patterns. For example, users prefer not to wait until a slow online store website loads completely, but to leave it and go to another store.

What Should Be Done During Performance Testing of E-Commerce Products?

• Thorough testing of performance for users located in different parts of the world
• Testing on different devices and browsers
• Load testing[3] on mobile devices with different operating systems and network types
• In-depth testing of particularly network-consuming features
• Comprehensive testing in the cloud

Testing of e-commerce products is one the cases where attention should be paid even to the smallest detail. Continuous growth of mobile devices market makes execution of e-commerce testing even more complicated. It is a hard nut to crack, but experienced software testers will help e-retailers to meet this challenge and deliver a competitive product.
