  • 아티클

Syed Aslam Basha here. I am a tester on the Information Security Tools team.

This blog post is in continuation with website performance testing simplified blog post. The final step in performance testing is to narrow down the faulty code which is taking lot of time or memory or CPU usage. I will show how VSTS code profiler can be used to narrow down the faulty code in a website.

Steps to configure VSTS Code Profiler:

  • Launch VSTS and open the website.
  • Run through all scenarios in the website and make sure there aren’t any errors or blockages.
  • Click on Analyze menu and select launch performance wizard.
  • It launches a wizard as shown below. It can profile current project or exe or dll or a website. Select the first one and click on next.
