¿Qué es Performance Testing?

Performance testing es a quality assurance practice que evaluates system behavior under various load conditions. It includes load testing, stress testing, endurance testing, y spike testing to ensure applications puede handle expected traffic volumes while maintaining acceptable response times. Realistic pruebas de rendimiento requiere distributed traffic sources que mimic actual user geographic distribution y connection characteristics.

Types of performance tests

Comprehensive testing para every scenario

Load Testing

Validate performance under expected user loads to ensure SLAs son met

Baseline validation

Stress Testing

Push systems beyond normal capacity to find breaking points

Limit discovery

Endurance Testing

Detect memory leaks y degradation over extended periods

Stability check

Spike Testing

Test sudden traffic surges like flash sales o viral events

Burst handling

Geo-Distribution

Test latency y performance desde multiple geographic regions

Global reach

Scalability Testing

Measure how well tu system scales con increasing load

Growth planning

Por qué pruebas de rendimiento necesita distributed proxies

Distributed load generation

Generate load desde 195+ countries to test CDN performance y regional latency realistically.

Realistic traffic patterns

Residential IPs mimic real user traffic, avoiding false positives desde detectable test traffic.

Accurate measurements

Measure true user-experienced latency y throughput desde actual geographic locations.

Instant scale

Scale desde hundreds to millions of requests without building y maintaining test infrastructure.

Testing challenges we solve

Traditional load testing approaches tienen significant limitations

Single-Location Testing

Testing desde one location doesn't reflect real user distribution o reveal regional performance issues.

Solución ProxyHat:Distribute load across 195+ countries to test CDN performance y regional latency.

Bloqueo de IP y Límites de Velocidad

High-volume testing desde few IPs triggers security measures, invalidating tu test results.

Solución ProxyHat:50M+ IPs distribute traffic naturally, avoiding rate limits y security blocks.

Unrealistic Traffic Patterns

Datacenter traffic doesn't match real user behavior, leading to false confidence in test results.

Solución ProxyHat:Residential IPs simulate authentic user traffic patterns y connection types.

Infrastructure Costs

Setting up global load testing infrastructure es expensive y time-consuming to maintain.

Solución ProxyHat:Pay-per-use pricing eliminates infrastructure costs. Scale tests up o down instantly.

Load testing con ProxyHat

Integrate distributed proxies into tu testing tools

import http from 'k6/http';
import { check, sleep } from 'k6';

export const options = {
  stages: [
    { duration: '2m', target: 100 },   // Ramp up
    { duration: '5m', target: 100 },   // Steady state
    { duration: '2m', target: 200 },   // Spike
    { duration: '2m', target: 0 },     // Ramp down
  ],
};

const proxy = 'http://user-country-us:pass@gate.proxyhat.com:7777';

export default function () {
  const res = http.get('https://your-app.com/api/products', {
    proxy: proxy,
  });

  check(res, {
    'status is 200': (r) => r.status === 200,
    'response time < 500ms': (r) => r.timings.duration < 500,
  });

  sleep(1);
}

Performance testing best practices

Match user distribution

Configure proxy locations to match tu actual user geographic distribution para realistic results.

Ramp up gradually

Start con low load y increase gradually to identify el point where performance degrades.

Test in production-like environments

Use staging environments que mirror production infrastructure para accurate results.

Monitor all layers

Track application, database, network, y infrastructure metrics during tests.

Test regularly

Integrate performance tests into CI/CD pipelines to catch regressions early.

Document baselines

Establish y track performance baselines to measure improvement over time.

Preguntas FrecuentesPreguntas

Por qué use proxies para pruebas de rendimiento?

Proxies enable distributed load testing desde multiple geographic locations, simulating realistic user traffic patterns. Without distributed testing, tú can't validate CDN performance, regional latency, o how tu application handles geographically diverse traffic.

¿Debo usar proxies residenciales o de datacenter para load testing?

It depends on tu goals. Residential proxies simulate realistic user traffic y son best para testing user-facing flows. Datacenter proxies offer higher throughput y lower cost para pure volume testing of backend systems y APIs.

Cómo many IPs do I need para load testing?

El número depende de tu carga objetivo y el sistema bajo prueba. Para simulación realista, usa suficientes IPs para evitar límites de velocidad - típicamente al menos una IP por cada 10-50 usuarios virtuales concurrentes. ProxyHat rota automáticamente entre 50M+ IPs.

Can I integrate proxies con k6, JMeter, o Gatling?

Yes. ProxyHat proxies work con all major load testing tools. Configure el proxy endpoint in tu tool's HTTP settings to route traffic through our infrastructure para distributed testing.
