design load test and scripts
Execute load test to capture
results on test
environment
Load test execution is a iterative
process
Step 3:
Add load test data
to the report
Add test execution result
to the report and compare to production data
Use the data to tune the load test until it resembles production behavior
Step 4:
12
Introduction to PAL and process flow
Export data to
production
Various assets can be exported
to monitor application in
production
Application should be
certified for release before exporting data
Step 5:

1. Lifecycle must start with clear business requirements
2. Testing must be done based on actual production measures
3. An accurate view of service level must be measured and monitored“If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it” - Dave Packard
Summary
Without it IT cannot set, test, measure, or deliver on expectations
Without it Quality will suffer
Without it Service degradation is inevitable
