Background/problem

Before using PureLoad, the load testing process with simulation of thousands of users was very costly and time consuming. The load testing results was not as detailed as required. Configuring a new telecom system to a large operator was always a bit of a risk and there was a gap between the technical labs and the actual Telecom operator.

Solution

The PureLoad solution is capable of combining a mix of common IP based protocols with specific Telecom protocols such as Radius, SIP, RTSP/RTP streaming, etc.

The solution holds a unique identification method, keeping track of each user such as IP Address, MSISDDN with a realistic distribution of different mobiles with correct characteristics such as their specific ÒAccept headersÓ etc. It is also possible to simulate a proper user session with multiple protocols.

The PureLoad expert level consultants, with many years of Telecom experience worked closely together with the customer to bring up understanding of traffic profiles to make a proper simulation.

The Pure Performance Suite is deployed in a cost effective way in multiple test labs in Europe, Asia and North America. By doing this the project were able to achieve technical alignment between software developers and test labs, as well as the solution integrator and the specific Telecom operator.

Result

The functional tests in the development and lab environment are now more effective and accurate than earlier so when itÕs time for load testing, the tested product is more ready and stable. After using the Pure Performance Suite, the performance and stability have been improved and the time-to-market has been reduced.
