Learn How To Scale Performance Testing Teams

Learn how to scale performance testing teams in large organizations. Maintaining a standard across the board for performance engineering teams is crucial for ensuring consistent output and understanding within big companies (the enterprise).

Video Highlights

🔍 Understanding the expertise of each team member is crucial for a successful performance testing team. Maximize strengths and train on weaknesses.
📈 Maintaining a standard across the board for performance engineering teams is crucial for ensuring consistent output and understanding within a large organization.
🔨 Building performance engineering skills onto a foundation of diverse backgrounds can lead to a strong and effective team.
💡 The desired outcome of performance testing is to have predictive performance results to allow stakeholders to understand how the application will behave under varying load conditions.
🛡️ You must constantly advocate to make sure that there was somebody championing performance along the way, as "non-functional" (operational) pieces often fall to the bottom of the priority list during software development.
🧠 The performance engineer can be the hero that saves the day when high-performing software is delivered, but also the one to blame when something snags in production.
📈 The value of a performance team can be justified by the business cases, such as avoiding a single incident that can pay for the team for the entire year.

Fantastic insight from Roy, a true maestro in Performance Engineering. I've had the distinct privilege of collaborating with Roy Reyna at both Dell and GM, witnessing firsthand his exceptional skill set and his passion for performance engineering.
A quick tip for Scott on the article's title: perhaps consider "Mastering the Art of Scaling Performance Engineering Teams" #performancengineering.
Roy eloquently sheds light on the multifaceted role of performance engineering teams. These teams go beyond mere performance testing; they are the unsung heroes ensuring systems not only meet but exceed expected outcomes. They are the allies of developers, guiding them in refining their code for optimal performance. In today's world, where AI and low-code/no-code platforms empower virtually anyone to code, the focus often skews towards features rather than efficient coding. Here, Roy's insight is invaluable: performance engineers should work in tandem with developers, honing their code to perfection. Under Roy's leadership, I've seen some of the finest performance engineers in action, masters in fine-tuning both infrastructure and code for peak performance. The teams that Roy has led in fortune 500 companies are a testament to the pivotal role performance engineers play in the tech landscape
