Performance testing is a very crucial part of quality control for many applications. In this article I want to look at different tools that can be very useful to conduct performance testing.

In the age of cloud-based servers, it’s natural to use the same cloud-platform for your performance testing environment, as for the production, using similarly configured instances. For example, Apache JMeter is a free and open-source solution for performance testing with almost unlimited functionality.
