Performance & Load Testing

Will Your App Survive Launch Day?

Product Hunt launches, investor demos, Black Friday traffic — they all hit at once. We simulate the spike before it happens, find the bottlenecks, and make sure your app stays up when it matters most.

Types of Performance Tests

Different traffic patterns reveal different problems. We run the right tests for your scenario.

Load Testing

Simulate your expected peak traffic to verify your app performs within acceptable response times under normal high load.

Stress Testing

Push beyond your expected limits to find the breaking point. Know exactly when and how your app fails.

Spike Testing

Simulate sudden traffic surges — the Product Hunt effect, a viral tweet, a press mention. Does your app handle it?

Soak Testing

Run sustained load over hours to find memory leaks, connection pool exhaustion, and gradual performance degradation.

Volume Testing

Test with large datasets to find database query performance issues that only appear at scale.

Frontend Performance

Lighthouse audits, Core Web Vitals measurement, and bundle size analysis for frontend performance optimization.

When You Need This

These are the moments where performance testing pays for itself ten times over.

Product Launches

Launch Day
Confidence

Product Hunt, AppSumo, or a major press feature. You have one shot — make sure the app stays up when the traffic hits.

Black Friday / Seasonal

10x
Traffic Simulation

eCommerce and SaaS products with seasonal spikes need to know their limits before the spike, not during it.

Investor Demos

0
Demo Failures

Nothing kills a funding round like a demo that crashes. We test before you pitch.

App Store Features

100k+
Users Simulated

Getting featured by Apple or Google sends a massive traffic spike. Be ready for it.

Common Challenges

Problems We Help Buyers Solve

QA gaps show up as regressions, store rejections, and security findings — usually right before launch.

No regression suite

Manual smoke tests can't keep pace with weekly releases.

AI-generated untested code

Lovable and Cursor prototypes reach staging without auth or edge-case coverage.

Device fragmentation

Mobile flows break on OS versions QA didn't cover.

Late QA

Testing in launch week makes fixes expensive and stressful.

“What a 70-engineer team could not deliver, a small senior team at GreeLogix shipped. The app went from stuck to live across mobile, web, and backend.”

Buyer Guide & Decision Framework

Performance & Load Testing: Scope, Pricing & Buyer Guide

At-a-glance scope, pricing tiers, delivery timelines, engineering tradeoffs, and decision criteria for technical founders and product leaders.

What is Performance & Load Testing?

Software QA and technical audit services cover manual and automated testing, performance and security checks, and senior engineer code review — especially for AI-generated or inherited codebases before production launch.

How much does Performance & Load Testing cost?

Pricing depends on scope, integrations, and timeline. GreeLogix provides transparent fixed-milestone quotes after discovery, with flexible models for one-off audits, sprint retainers, or dedicated engineers.

Need to model sprint hours and coverage? Use our QA estimation calculator.

Key Cost Factors

  • ·App complexity and number of platforms (web, iOS, Android)
  • ·Automation scope vs manual-only
  • ·Security or penetration testing depth
  • ·Whether you need embedded QA or per-release engagement

How long does delivery take?

Smoke audit: 1 week. Full regression cycle: ongoing per sprint. Deep code audit: 5–7 business days. Phases: Strategy (Week 1); Execution (Per sprint); Automation (Parallel).

Delivery Phases

  1. 1.Test strategy: risk map, environments, and release criteria
  2. 2.Execution: test cases, bug reports with repro steps, regression suites
  3. 3.Automation wired into CI where ROI is clear
  4. 4.Release sign-off report with go/no-go recommendation

Who is it for?

  • ·Teams shipping Lovable, Cursor, or Bolt prototypes to real users
  • ·Founders facing investor technical diligence
  • ·Products with regressions every sprint and no test automation
  • ·Mobile apps needing device-matrix testing before store release

When NOT to use this service

  • ·Static marketing site with no auth or payments
  • ·You cannot provide staging access or test accounts
  • ·You expect QA to define product requirements

Pros / Benefits

  • +Catch permission and payment bugs before customers do
  • +Documented release checklist for repeatable shipping
  • +Investor-ready technical risk summary

Risks to Plan For

  • −QA without product context files shallow tickets
  • −Testing only happy paths misses edge cases in billing and roles
  • −Delaying QA until launch week maximizes fix cost

How Does Performance & Load Testing Compare to Alternatives?

Compare delivery models, cost profiles, and engineering tradeoffs before committing resources.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the buyer questions we hear most before a project starts.

What is load testing?

Load testing simulates real user traffic on your application to measure how it performs under expected and peak load conditions. We measure response times, throughput, error rates, and resource utilization to identify bottlenecks before they affect real users.

What tools do you use for performance testing?

We primarily use k6 for modern API and web app load testing, JMeter for complex scenarios and legacy systems, Gatling for high-concurrency testing, and Google Lighthouse for frontend performance audits.

When should I run load testing?

Before any major launch, before a marketing campaign or Product Hunt launch, before Black Friday or seasonal traffic spikes, and after significant architectural changes. If you're pitching to investors and they'll demo the product, run load testing first.

Our Process

01

Baseline Measurement

We establish your current performance baseline — response times, throughput, and resource utilization under normal load.

02

Test Scenario Design

We design realistic load scenarios based on your expected traffic patterns and peak use cases.

03

Load Test Execution

Tests run with k6 or JMeter, generating detailed metrics on response times, error rates, and server resource usage.

04

Report & Recommendations

Full performance report with bottleneck identification, capacity recommendations, and optimization priorities.
