Paul Bruce examines the most critical reasons for performance testing, what happens when APIs don't perform well and provides guidance on how to be sure your APIs are set to succeed. As critical as they are, APIs often don't get the testing and monitoring attention they need. His talk is part of the Testing Session, covering best practices on building rock solid test environments for your API. Paul is a web performance and scalability engineer at SmartBear. With 15+ years of software development experience, he focuses on end-to-end web performance optimization, load testing, production service deployment and operations monitoring.
