Description: Infrastructure testing is a set of evaluations designed to analyze and validate the hardware and software infrastructure that supports an application. These tests are fundamental to ensure that all system components, such as servers, networks, and databases, operate optimally and can handle the load and performance required by applications. Through these tests, potential bottlenecks, configuration failures, and compatibility issues that could affect software availability and performance are identified. Infrastructure testing can include load testing, stress testing, performance testing, and security testing, among others. Automating these tests allows for faster and more efficient execution, facilitating early problem detection and reducing development time. In a dynamic development environment, where changes are frequent and rapid, automated infrastructure testing becomes an essential tool to ensure that the underlying infrastructure can support the changing demands of applications. This not only improves software quality but also optimizes resources and reduces long-term operational costs.
