How can we use Transaction Response Time to analyze performance issue?
Transaction Response Time allows us to identify abnormalities when performance issues surface. This will be represented as slow response of the transaction, which differs significantly (or slightly) from the average of the Transaction Response Time.
With this, we can further drill down by correlation using other measurements such as the number of virtual users that is accessing the application at the point of time and the system-related metrics (e.g. CPU Utilization) to identify the root cause.
Bringing all the data that have been collected during the load test, we can correlate the measurements to find trends and bottlenecks between the response time, the amount of load that was generated and the payload of all the components of the application.
How is it beneficial to the Project Team?
Using Transaction Response Time, Project Team can better relate to their users using transactions as a form of language protocol that their users can comprehend. Users will be able to know that transactions (or business processes) are performing at an acceptable level in terms of time.
Users may be unable to understand the meaning of CPU utilization or Memory usage and thus using a common language of time is ideal to convey performance-related issues.
