It is good for measurements of performance testing. It can be used to run API testing. I can not use this for monitoring but it can be used as a complement for monitoring tools (like Catchpoint or New Relic). It can help to produce load on your site and monitor.

Overall, XCTest is a good choice for testing iOS functionality and apps at a basic unit level. In order to thoroughly test the logic, you must add many of those sorts of basic tests, which makes functional UI testing more appropriate for iOS apps. As I mentioned earlier, limited Programming Language Support and no cross platform compatibilities are the only major drawbacks.

Pros
  • Blazemeter has very intuitive and uncluttered UI. It is very easy for a beginner to figure out and get started.
  • Blazemeter allows several methods of creating performance tests - using several popular open source applications. Therefore most often there is no need to learn to use a new tool or language.

BlazeMeter scores well against Apache JMeter in one Key point , the load generation from different cloud based systems. This helps to measure the capacity of the the application in a transparent way and not bogged down by the capacity of the system from where the test is executed (in this case Apache JMeter)

We used Appium to do unit testing, but we felt that it was slow and had its own learning curve, so we decided to try XCTest; it seemed faster and more agile to use because we already had knowledge of iOS and the other advantages that I talk before, now all the team is using XCTest.

Return on Investment
  • BlazeMerter helped performance tests run on their cloud, thereby diminishing our on-prem setup costs tremendously.
  • BlazeMeter pings our application from several geographical locations, thereby simulating real life users.
  • BlazeMeter offers dedicated IPs so that firewall issues can be bypassed.
