Technical Challenge
Our client has a wide range of applications and technology stacks - both for custom and packaged applications.

Approach and Solution
Forte utilizes their Performance Testing Framework (a collection of processes and templates) to ensure the right test is designed, developed and executed to produce meaningful and actionable results. Our expertise in a wide range of tooling allowed us to ensure we can execute successfully independent of the technology under test. In addition, our knowledge of cloud-based load generation platforms allowed us to execute large scale load tests (500K plus concurrent users) in a cost efficient manner.
Our client is a global enterprise with numerous independent business units. We engaged with multiple business units, each with their own applications, technology stack and environment. We provide performance testing on both commercial off-the-shelf applications, as well as custom applications developed by our client in-house.
The value Forte Group brings is our comprehensive understanding of our clients' technologies, as well as the landscape of performance testing tools. We delivered a solution that was customized to each business unit, based on their varying requirements and technical environment. We have the experience and depth of expertise to provide the right performance testing solutions across all of our client's environments.
