Let’s face it - the ideal load test emulates real world traffic, yet most load testing software doesn't come close. A series of GET requests from an in-house server can't possibly replicate what actually happens when a website sees a sudden increase in users from all over the world.

Firstly, start by installing the Dynatrace OneAgent on the hosts where you’ll be running your application test. If you have a distributed environment with multiple servers hosting your webservers, app servers, and database, I suggest you install the OneAgent on all these servers to get full end-to-end visibility.

As the number of websites has increased with time, so has the source of traffic leading to that website. In 2015, 35% of the internet traffic came from mobile devices, 6 years later, the number is 54.8%. Mobiles have become a priority and subsequently, the testing of websites that are rendered on it.

DevOps on their own are meant to slash down the time taken from building a patch to deploying it on the servers. FaaS takes the game one more step ahead and frees the architects and developers from server and infrastructure responsibilities. For example, as the traffic increases, you can allocate two more machines to a particular zone.

A typical load test server can simulate up to 800 simultaneous sessions. Many test-automation and performance testing platforms are using headless browsers to simulate traffic. A typical load injection server can simulate up to 10-12 simultaneous headless browser sessions, versus 500 of HTTP based sessions.
