Capacity Testing
Load testing that determines the maximum number of concurrent users a website can handle before performance degrades below acceptable thresholds.
Capacity testing simulates escalating numbers of concurrent users and measures how response times and error rates change at each level. AuditJet's Capacity Intelligence runs tests from 10 to 200 concurrent users in stepped waves, identifying the exact breaking point where latency exceeds 2 seconds or error rate exceeds 5%. This is critical for ecommerce sites before sales events and for SaaS companies expecting growth spikes.
