PerfAgents

Ajith J. talks about Uncloud in this brief video ▶ Thanks for watching!

PerfAgents' unique value proposition is that it combines testing and monitoring using open-source web automation frameworks such as Playwright, Selenium, Cypress.io, and Puppeteer. QAs can use PerfAgents to test, and DevOps can use PerfAgents to monitor. Does Dynatrace have that capability?

Today, we launched PerfAgents on Product Hunt! But what is Product Hunt? It's basically a community to discover and share new tech products. It's a launchpad for launching (validated) tech products and new trends. It's like the keynote for the makers (of the product) to showcase (the USPs of the product) to the world! Next time you stumble upon a request to "upvote" a product on Product Hunt, you at least know that it's different from regular voting 😀! Having said that it never hurts or takes too much of your time to support my team by giving us an "upvote". Or does it? 😜 #ProductHunt #SaaS #Startup #Monitoring

The next time you hear about an outage or a downtime issue within your company, you need to ask your guys a question! Do we have synthetic monitoring in place? #outages #downtime #syntheticmonitoring

Testing and monitoring your customer-facing applications should replicate your user's behavior (as closely as possible)! Why so? --> To avoid outages, slowness/latency, and P1 issues. Suppose you anticipate that the top set of sequence of actions your users do on your web application is this: --> User logs in to the application --> User click on the search tab in your application and type in a keyword. --> Search results show up --> Performs some activity --> Logs off The above flow is never guaranteed to work for all users. Even if it works, some users could experience slowness. That's because modern applications are way more complex than legacy ones and have many moving parts. One user could access it using a Chrome browser on a Windows laptop from New York, whereas another would access it through a Safari browser on a Mac from Portland, OR, and so on. To ensure that user flow for every user works from their locations and from their devices and browsers, you need to proactively and continuously check whether that flow is working as expected and whether SLAs are met all the time. That's where synthetic monitoring concepts come to the rescue. How you do that is like this: You need to script that exact user flow using a test credential or test user account and then run that script continuously from AWS regions closer to the user's location. That way, you know that it works from the AWS region and, in turn, be sure that it will most likely work for any users around that region. It's a simple but powerful technique to ensure users have a great experience using your product. All that you have to do are: 1) Write a Playwright script to mimic that user's action 2) Push it to your GitHub repos 3) Create a PAT with read-only access 4) Create a PerfAgents account and click "Create Sequence Monitoring." 6) Click on "Playwright" and choose "GitHub Integration." 7) Insert the PAT information from GitHub 8) Select the Amazon Web Services (AWS) region and the frequency at which you want your script to run. 9) Select the notification endpoint (Jira/Slack/Email/Linear/AWS S3 Bucket or whatever. PerfAgents supports a lot of such integrations) 10) You will be alerted if there are SLA breaches or outages. If not, PerfAgents shows Splunk-like Logs where you can see what is running and what has run. You can also see Forensic data around your monitoring script execution, deep-dive into traces, and a lot more data. PerfAgents - The only infrastructure software you need to monitor your software in just the way people use your software! PerfAgents is built to run open-source web automation software such as Playwright and Selenium. Gone are the days when you need to spend millions of dollars to monitor and still zoom into P1 issue calls in the middle of the night. Embrace open source and get 100% monitoring coverage for your user flows! #perfagents #opensource #playwright

PerfAgents is now part of Amazon Web Services (AWS) Startups. That means PerfAgents is also the go to "synthetic monitoring" tool when you want to monitor your user flows through Playwright, Selenium, Cypress.io or Pptr scripts from AWS regions around the world. When you want to monitor your user flows continuously and efficiently from AWS regions around the world, there are not many options available other than building your own solution (by running your existing scripts using a custom scheduler). That's why PerfAgents exist. Playwright or Selenium or Cypress or Puppeteer scripts you wrote for doing end to end tests can now be run effortlessly from PerfAgents for performance monitoring and uptime monitoring. It solves the problem of Observability across your user flows. Search for "synthetic monitoring" from your AWS console and start monitoring your user flows using PerfAgents, if you are not already doing it. https://lnkd.in/eZ2kywvn #qa #aws #e2e

Monitor the software just the way people use it! PerfAgents is built to make software testing more user-centric and aligned with real-world scenarios. You can repurpose these tests for synthetic monitoring! #end-to-end-testing #qa #devops
