1.5Key Takeaways -- Chapter 1
- Performance directly impacts revenue. Every 100ms of latency has a measurable business cost.
- Reliability is the foundation that makes performance valuable. A fast but unreliable system is worse than a slightly slower reliable one.
- Modern QA architects own performance and resilience, not just correctness.
- Performance testing is a continuous practice integrated into CI/CD, not a one-time activity.
- The testing lifecycle includes build-time checks, Lighthouse CI, API budgets, load testing, chaos testing, and production validation.
