The goals of performance testing for all our industrial computers and no matter our own brands or customization include evaluating application output, processing speed, data transfer velocity, network bandwidth usage, maximum concurrent users, memory utilization, workload efficiency, and command response times.
And, Performance testing is a technique that evaluates how a system performs under a given workload. Some performance tests that can be used for industrial computers include:
Color temperature test
Tests the stability of the white point color temperature of the displayer under different brightness levels
VLAN function test
Tests whether the switch can correctly divide devices into different VLANs to achieve data isolation and security
As well, other types of performance testing include:
· Capacity testing: Tests traffic loads based on a varying number of users
· Load testing: Understands how a system behaves under a specific load value
· Scalability testing: Measures performance based on the software's ability to scale up or down
· Soak/endurance testing: Assesses if the software can handle the expected load efficiently over a long period
· Spike testing: Assesses the performance of a system under an increase of simulated end users
· Stress testing: Checks the performance of a system under higher-than-expected traffic loads
· Volume testing: Checks the performance of the software app under changing database volumes
To optimize the performance of an industrial computer, you can also consider investing in efficient cooling solutions such as fans, heat sinks, or liquid cooling systems.
