When you're working with any code, whether it's automation or software code, it should be treated the same way. One of the many things that don't come up as often when you're automating vs when you're building application code is testing. After-all, functions are still functions and variables are still variables.

As organizations develop more applications and microservices, they are discovering they also need to run more performance tests in the same amount of time or less to meet service-level objectives (SLOs) that fulfill service-level agreements (SLAs). How can organizations address this process bottleneck and run more tests in less time?
