Solution What you should be using eValid to help you do... |
| Speed/Performance Something that works OK doesn't work fast enough. | A page has many big components. | Site Analysis | Use SiteMap to find too-big or slow-loading pages, then, break up pages or replace them as needed. | There's a possible performance problem with your server. | Server Loading | Use LoadTest to drive (and over-drive!) your server and study its saturation level as the load you impose increases. | A page is too complex, too confusing. | Page Tuning | Use detailed timings to time page components, shorten the slowest loading elements. |
| Complexity Something works OK but is too complex, too busy, too hard to use. | Too complicated a page (too many parts). | Page Metrics | Look at the Page Metrics PopUp to see how complex it really is, make needed adjustments. | Too many images. | Site Analysis | Use SiteMap to find too-big pages, or slow-loading pages, then, break the pages up as needed. | Too much information on a page. | Page Tuning | Use detailed timings to time page components. |
| Content Something you refer to is broken (either on your WebSite or elsewhere) | Broken links. | Site Analysis | Use SiteMap to find broken links, then, fix them. | Missing images or components. | Functional Testing | Use eValid validation and verification tests to confirm errors. |
| Behavior Something doesn't work the way you want it to. | Page defects. | Functional Testing | Use eValid validation and verification tests to confirm errors. | Login failure. | Advanced Testing | Use eValid deep-transaction testing to simulate valid and invalid logins, isolate errors. |
