2. Why?
● Live and test environment crashed after release
● Functional testing did not show any problems
3. Target
● Make sure that our changes will not crash live
environment again
● No intention to define performance limits of live
environment
4. How?
● Tests provided by Attlassian
● JMeter
● Own shell script for setup automation
● Dedicated physical machine (not the same as in
live)
● Same confluence configuration as in live
