“…Load testing, as a type of non-functional testing, is a performance evaluation method used to assess how a system responds to diverse user requests. It aids in understanding how the software performs when multiple users access the system concurrently, revealing potential bottlenecks or issues related to scalability [28]. Load testing is conducted on an actual system, whether it is in the form of a prototype or a fully operational system, rather than a design on paper [29].…”

Recent advancements in biosensors have empowered individuals with diabetes to autonomously monitor their blood glucose levels through continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors. Nevertheless, the data collected from these sensors may occasionally include outliers due to the inherent imperfections of the sensor devices. Consequently, the identification of these outliers is critical to determine whether blood glucose levels deviate significantly from the norm, necessitating further action. This study employs an outlier detection approach based on the 3-sigma method and the interquartile range (IQR), along with the application of the Winsorizing technique to correct the identified outliers. Additionally, a web-based system for visualizing blood glucose levels is developed, utilizing both outlier detection methods. In order to assess the system's performance, two types of testing are conducted: black box testing and load testing. The results of black box testing indicate that all test scenarios operate as anticipated. As for the load testing response times, it is observed that the 3-sigma visualization page loads an average of 606.75 milliseconds faster compared to the IQR visualization page. This study's outcomes are expected to enhance data quality, enhance the precision of analyses, and facilitate more informed decision-making by identifying and addressing extreme data points.

“…NFRs need to be validated within Agile projects through adequate testing to ensure their quality attributes have been met in the final software product. Web applications, for example, require full coverage of NFRs validation through testing [18]. This validation becomes quite clear in aA proper method for quantification of identified NFRs is necessary so they can be validated during the Agile development cycle.…”

Agile software development has become very popular around the world in recent years, with methods such as Scrum and Extreme Programming (XP). Literature suggests that functionality is the primary focus in Agile processes while non-functional requirements (NFRs) are either ignored or ill-defined. However, for software to be of good quality both functional requirements (FRs) and NFRs need to be taken into consideration; lack of attention to NFRs has been documented to be the cause of failure for many software projects. Hence special attention needs to be focused on NFRs in Agile software development. Requirements elicitation, implementation in design, development, and validation are important activities of software development. Agile has good processes to elicit functional requirements that are captured as user stories. However, NFRs elicitation has not been given enough attention within Agile processes. Additionally, reasoning and validating of NFRs have been lacking. This research proposes the "NERV Methodology: Non functional Requirements Elicitation, Reasoning, and Validation in Agile Processes." Current results show the artifacts developed in this research can potentially help software development organizations address NFRs in early Agile processes.

“…Tests can be generally divided into functional and non-functional testing. Normally non-functional tests concern the performance of the system, their usability, interoperability, portability and reliability (Hutcheson, 2003); (Naik and Tripathy, 2008); (Romano et al, 2009). Many authors have indicated the importance of performance testing and the need for appropriate methodologies for their implementation (du Plessis, 2008); (Yao et al, 2006); (Myers, 2004).…”

“…Such approach is organizationally difficult and very costly. Therefore, in practice, there are used special software tools for performance testing running on special testing platforms (Poston and Sexton, 1992); (Sakamoto et al, 2002); (Zhen et al, 2009); (Romano et al, 2009). These tools enable planning, load generation, execution and analysis of tests' results (Netto et al, 2011); (Myers, 2004).…”

Legacy information systems are increasingly a subject to reengineering with the progress of ICT. There are developed systems with similar features to replace those which operate. Developed software needs testing. This paper focuses on the importance of performance testing in the early stages of software development. To performance tests be credible, the appropriate load profile of the system must be used. The paper presents a method of using legacy system load of real transaction data to design performance tests for newly developed systems. The example of the hospital information system (HIS) shows the use of this method in the software development using agile methods. Presented approach allowed the early detection of performance problems of the new software.
