Evaluation of open source software for testing performance of web applications

Abstract:

The evaluation of Open Source software for testing performance in Web applications is accomplished. In order to achieve the objective, the research model was followed: literature review, strategy, methods to generate data and the analysis of the data. This study was conducted based on measures of the ISO/IEC 25023 standard, and the software test process proposed by ISTQB. Regarding the software evaluation, it was done considering the characteristics described by their official developers and experimentation. The tool that obtained the best results was JMeter, covering 80% of the selection criteria. It is applied to a case study. This evaluation allowed to know the performance measures of a real web application.
