If you look at Holiday season from an online commerce point of view, you’ll notice that the traffic starts to ramp up already mid-November and is peaking every weekend until Christmas.
With this in mind, it is very important that you maximize your revenue potential throughout the whole Holiday Shopping season by ensuring your end-to-end user experience performs as it should all the time. You need to start from basics like:
1. Check that your app can be found and downloaded from Google Play and Apple App Store without any issues on most common devices.
2. Check that the latest version of your app communicates flawlessly with the current version of your production back end.
3. Check that the most typical use cases work ALWAYS: Creating a new account, logging in, purchasing and upgrading/downgrading your subscription levels.
4. Check the response times for the most common use cases described above.
5. Do this automatic check routine often – ideally every 10-15 minutes.
It is fairly easy to set up this kind of monitoring routine on your CI system by using Bitbar Jenkins plugin and by utilizing the automation scripts created in stages 1 and 2.
Naturally running the same scripts in a loop every 10-15 minutes creates a lot of test results so you need to make monitoring smart. You can integrate your monitoring tests with generic monitoring dashboards such as Nagios where you can create result based rules like “If this test fails 3 times in a row, create a level 1 alarm”. This way you will be aware of the live status of your service and will be ready to react immediately if something breaks.
All three holiday season readiness stages are done! Start right away and don’t forget to download a checklist that we made to keep you on a track, you’ll find it at the link below.
