SSW Update - Do you run web tests on your website (for load and automated testing)?
Microsoft Gold Partner Logo

 

[ the cutting edge ]

G'Day Developers!

Once you have a website up and running, it is important to make sure:

  • You have an easy was to test it
  • It keeps running under load

Easy Automated Testing

Typical issues that result from web page errors are:

  • Application Crashes due to:
    • Bugs in code
    • Database issues

Easy Load Testing

Typical issues that these tests find are:

  • Very slow load times
  • Application Crashes due to:
    • Insufficient resources - so application pools are recycled
    • Too many concurrent users causing race conditions
    • Too many users trying to connect to the database

Web Tests help you avoid these issues by preempting them before you go live. Some issues might be resolved by getting a better web server, while others might require code changes and optimizations.

See the rest of this rule, and others on the SSW Rules page.

SpykVirtual Earth

Virtual Earth is a powerful online mapping technology that allows maps to be seamlessly integrated into a website. AJAX technology means users can smoothly pan and zoom the maps, and data visualised on the map, such as traffic data, climate change, and housing prices can be dynamically updated.

To showcase this technology, SSW has developed www.Spyk.com, an award winning Real Estate website aggregating housing prices from other major portals.
