Platform Performance Testing
Key Responsibilities
Performance Testing & Engineering
Design and execute performance, load, stress, endurance, and scalability tests for ArcGIS Pro-based environments.
Establish platform performance baselines with only ArcGIS Pro installed and configured.
Measure and analyze system responsiveness during key GIS user workflows including:
o Map opening and rendering
o Zoom In / Zoom Out operations
o Panning across large datasets
o Feature editing and saving
o Layer refresh and redraw
o Attribute queries and searches
o Geoprocessing execution
o Spatial analysis operations
o Data synchronization and retrieval
Define performance benchmarks and acceptance criteria for GIS operations.
Develop test scenarios simulating concurrent user workloads and realistic GIS usage patterns.
Tool Development & Automation
Create and maintain performance test scripts using:
o LoadRunner Enterprise (LRE)
o Apache JMeter
Automate execution, monitoring, and reporting of performance tests.
Integrate performance testing into CI/CD pipelines where applicable.
Build reusable frameworks and performance testing assets.
Monitoring & Analysis
Monitor client-side and server-side performance metrics during test execution.
Analyze:
o Response times
o Resource utilization (CPU, Memory, Disk, Network)
o Rendering performance
o Transaction throughput
o System scalability
Identify bottlenecks related to:
o ArcGIS Pro processing
o Network latency
o Data layers and services
o Infrastructure constraints
o Client workstation performance
Reporting & Collaboration
Produce detailed performance assessment reports and dashboards.
Present findings, trends, risks, and recommendations to stakeholders.
Collaborate with GIS engineers, infrastructure teams, developers, and architects to resolve performance issues.
Participate in root cause analysis and performance tuning activities.
