  • Adaptive performance calibration for code
    Patent number: 11204856
    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to performance testing of software code. In some embodiments, a method includes executing a software program, where the software program includes at least one target portion of code to be performance tested. The method further includes receiving a data stream, where the data stream includes a plurality of events, and where the at least one target portion of code processes the plurality of events based on an event rate. The method further includes monitoring for failures associated with the at least one target portion of code processing the plurality of events. The method further includes modifying the event rate if at least one failure is detected, where the event rate is modified until no failures are detected. The method further includes generating a performance report if no failures are detected during a target success time period.
