Load Testing Quote for July 30, 2010

Long Duration Load Tests

I've known some web Product Managers that require at least one 72 hour load test on a monthly basis. In fact, a couple are customers of LoadStorm.

The reasoning behind conducting such long tests is that memory leaks can be very difficult to find in a 1 hour test and should be detectable after 72 hours. Comparisons of memory consumption in the first hour to the 72nd hour under the same load may expose any defects in the code that leave memory wasted.
