ASOS

ASOS

ASOS - The online fashion store Asos.com is one of the UK’s leading online retailers and is amongst the top 10 retail websites in the UK - required to handle millions of visits per week with a large and complex site rich in content and media.

A substantial and robust load testing platform is required to generate both the volume of users and data throughput to test a website like Asos to, and beyond, its peak capacity. Intechnica’s TrafficSpike enterprise level load testing solution allowed complex and functionally rich tests, simulating the diverse behaviour of Asos’s millions of online users, to be run whilst testing up to and beyond the website’s peak data throughput.
