Tynor Orthotics is India’s largest manufacturer and exporter of orthopedic and fracture aids established in the 90s to deliver quality healthcare products.
Committed to a significant expansion in the next three years, Tynor has by now grown to 500 dealers across India and expects high online sales to rocket. Therefore, they crafted a new e-commerce website focused on excellent customer experience to support this growth. To be confident at launch, the engineering team of Tynor decided to run pre-go-live stress testing for the website.
“We knew that the business expected us to support high sales,” said Pankaj Mor, Tynor’s Chief Information Officer. “But no one was completely sure that our new site was ready for it. Moreover, our team lacks competence in load testing, and we had only a week left before the launch.”
In such circumstances, Pankaj chose to look for a contractor to outsource website load testing to. Short Google search results suggested PFLB. “The tight deadline felt challenging, but I was relieved to hear they provide a quick load testing solution.”
Indeed, after having come on the scene, engineers from PFLB proposed this very service. Quick Load Testing solution includes a four-day load testing project performed by engineers of PFLB and a 1-month subscription to the innovative load testing platform, boomq.io.
The solution provides test results and recommendations on what to improve in order to increase website performance. In addition, the subscription to boomq.io gives Tynor’s team the ability to run more test iterations on their own at their convenience.

According to the results of the first tests iteration, the website was, to put it mildly, not ready for high sales:
Even with only 8 concurrent users, page load time exceeded 2 sec.
Maximum number of simultaneous users, considering the SLA, did not exceed 16
Response time was growing linearly with the number of concurrent users
Definitely, these figures were not what the team had expected. The website performance needed significant improvement.
Tynor’s engineers analyzed the behavior of the site under load and identified several bottlenecks at the levels of database and network. Then, there were several more iterations of fixing the issues and running more tests.
Finally, website performance was improved by more than a factor of 30:
Maximum number of simultaneously working users increased to 500
Average page load time under load decreased to under 2 sec.
The website can serve more than 10,000 users a day
Thus, Tynor achieved the goal and prepared their new website for high sales.
Quick Load Testing is a very effective business solution and a part of performance testing services offered by PFLB in USA and worldwide since 2008.
It allows the client to get information about the site performance in real time and provides teams with a fully customized tool for further load testing of new releases.
