Program Overview: What is Silk Performer?
Silk Performer is a 23-hour program for QA engineers and performance testers running load tests with Silk Performer. Across 6 modules it covers Silk Performer setup, scripting, workload design, execution, and analysis. It suits testers with basic QA experience who need production-grade Silk Performer skills.
Training is hands-on: every concept is taught through guided labs in Silk Performer: participants record scripts, correlate data, design workloads, execute distributed tests, and analyze results. The instructor coaches each lab, reviews scripts, and corrects weak test design before it wastes a test window.
Teams struggle with performance surprises and load tests nobody believes. This program builds Silk Performer discipline: realistic scripts, honest workloads, and analysis that drives fixes. Your team gains performance evidence it can act on.
A 5-hour capstone closes the program, where participants deliver a complete performance testing engagement with Silk Performer.

Cohorts are grouped by role and experience so every session targets the workflows your people own.
Prerequisites: This program suits QA engineers with basic testing experience; prior performance testing helps but is not required. Familiarity with web applications makes labs smoother. No prior Silk Performer experience is needed, and content adapts to each cohort's applications.
Testers to performance owners
Cohorts start with Silk Performer foundations and scripting, build through workloads and execution, and finish with the analysis skills that turn data into fixes.
One program grows with testing careers, from first scripts to performance ownership.
Mixed cohort, or several teams at once?
We can tailor the training to different teams, roles, and experience levels within the same program.
