Appvance Adds New Relic APM Testing To PerformanceCloud
SAN JOSE, Calif., April 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Appvance Inc., a
leader in app performance testing, announced the addition of
Application Performance Management (APM) integration with New Relic in
Appvance PerformanceCloud, its third generation cloud testing platform
that combines functional, performance, stress, load tests and
monitoring, with New Relic.
"Our customers have requested this new capability we call Proactive
APM," said Kevin Surace, CEO at Appvance. "Before this, APM was most
useful once an app launched, the app delivered a poor end-user
experience, and was flagged by New Relic. Proactive APM gives business
managers, engineers, and testers a way to anticipate the end-user
experience while the app is under development, then compare simulated
user performance to real user performance once the app launches. This
allows for instant diagnoses when there are production issues, by
comparing expected transaction times with potential issues. If you are
already using New Relic, you'll want to add Appvance PerformanceCloud
to your app development and testing environment."
Appvance PerformanceCloud (APC) is the first beginning-to-end test
system which accurately drives 100% of the actual user interactions,
even with complex HTML5 and AJAX client-side code. APC has had a
monitoring capability to correlate resource - CPU, Network, Memory,
and other aspects of performance - to app end-user experiences. Adding
integration with New Relic helps surface and pinpoint app end-user
performance issues and functional issues in Web apps, Ajax apps,
Mobile (iOS/Android), and Oracle Forms apps more easily and more
accurately. The new features include:
-- Integrated New Relic Monitoring to App Server, DB Server, Load
Balancer, Node.js Server
-- Quickly create Benchmarks to App Performance for DevOps and
Engineers
-- Live Web-based Results, Drill Downs to Request/Response Level As
The Tests Run
-- Analysis From Simulated Use Of Your App to CPU, Net, Memory, DB
Query Analysis
-- Use New Relic Application Performance Management For Deeper Root
Cause Analysis
-- 85 Reports from Results Repository for ?App Functional and
Performance Analysis
-- Define Appvance PerformanceCloud Integration To Any New Relic
Report
-- Select An App Transaction, see New Relic Report on Server, App, DB
-- Runs AWS Cloud, Private Grid datacenter, or Both
-- Compatible with Selenium, JMeter, Sahi, Appium, Java, PHP, Perl
Tests
-- Data driven tests and analysis from live operational test data
sources
From the latest Ajax JavaScript toolkits to legacy Oracle Forms, from
video to mobile apps, APC drives dramatically higher productivity in
SQA, and thus deeper analysis. APC runs in a public cloud or in a
private cloud behind the firewall to fully support Agile workflows
defined in popular test scripting languages such as Selenium, JMeter,
Sahi, Appium, Java, PHP, Perl for all test methods, and includes
Appvance's patent-pending uxAvatar technology, that allows even
complex sites and apps to be tested without coding. APC is
installation-less and runs fully within any browser, including IE,
Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Mobile Web browsers.
