Tuning a Career in Performance:

Performance Testing is a type of software testing to ensure software applications will perform well under their expected workload.
A software application's performance like its response time, reliability, resource usage and scalability do matter. The goal of Performance Testing is not to find bugs but to eliminate performance bottlenecks.
Performance Testing is popularly called “Perf Testing” and is a subset of performance engineering.
Performance Testing is a discipline concerned with testing and reporting the current performance of a software application under various parameters.
Performance engineering is the process by which software is tested and tuned with the intent of realizing the required performance. This process aims to optimize the most important application performance trait i.e. user experience.
