A very interesting book, mainly because it's quite rare for someone to approach this topic at such a high level. There are no well-known examples of how to use jMeter, K6, or anything else here. Instead, we have a practical description of how to plan such tests from start to finish, what to expect from stakeholders, what data is required, and how to create a test plan from beginning to the end. It's still quite general, but it's really well thought and written. My only remark is that the book is divided into two parts, serious and humorous, and sometimes the humorous part becomes a bit tiresome. Besides that, I highly recommend it.

Bardzo ciekawa pozycja, głównie dlatego, że dość rzadko ktoś podchodzi do tej tematyki z tak wysokiego poziomu. Nie ma tutaj po raz kolejny przykładów jak użyć jMetera, K6 czy czegokolwiek innego. Mamy natomiast świetny opis, jak takie testy zaplanować od początku do końca, czego oczekiwać od ‘stakeholderow’, jakie dane są wymagane, jak stworzyć od początku do końca test plan. Wiadomo jest to nadal na dość wysokim poziomie ogólności, ale jest to naprawdę dobrze przemyślane i napisane. Moją jedyną uwagą jest to, że książka dzieli się w sumie na dwie połowy: poważną i żartobliwą, i czasem ta żartobliwa część staje się trochę męcząca.
Poza tym, bardzo polecam.

Very enojyable book, with very ingenious examples related to the challenges, processes and steps to face load testing projects, recommended for beginners.
