Yes, but is it fast enough? Performance testing with JMeter

Many modern systems are riddled with performance issues. Proper performance testing helps ensure that problems with responsiveness and throughput are detected and corrected during development, before the system goes live. The presentation gives a practical overview of performance testing in an enterprise setting, and demonstrates how to utilize the popular open source tool JMeter for performance testing. The presentation also outlines some tactics on how to handle performance problems if they are found.
