Software performance and scalability is critical to the success of an enterprise software and a great amount of effort and resources are spent in testing the performance and scalability for various use cases of a software, before it is released. But replicating the environment for testing this performance and scalability of a software can be too costly or sometimes not feasible due to lack of proper equipment at disposal. The talk focuses on how to utilize container and automation technologies to replicate large scale environments to automate the testing for performance and scalability of the software according to the user requirements. The key points of focus are: - Utilizing containers to replicate large scale environments - Automating deployment and performance, scalability tests on these containerized environments
