Notebook excerpts

Some time ago I met with another tester here in Indy to provide advice on performance testing. A while ago I published some articles on the notes from that meeting, and a couple months ago I published some scans of my notes from the discussion.

I don't see many examples of notes, so I thought I'd link to them here as well:

• The first page was an interactive attempt to understand the problem.

• The second page was an attempt to understand the goals of the performance testing.



• The third page was an attempt to document the initial usage model.



• The fourth page was an attempt to illustrate how I would approach organizing my work and how to present results to the various stakeholders.



• The fifth page was a description of a performance degradation curve and how to use it.
