Driving Scalable Operations: Performance Testing for a Garage Door Manufacturing Application

The client is a leading manufacturer of garage doors serving both residential and commercial markets across the United States and Canada. Their operations rely on a robust, custom-built application to manage the full lifecycle of orders—from configuration and entry to production scheduling, inventory tracking, and final shipment. The system also supports real-time integration with dealers and automated warehouse systems.

The company experienced a business challenge as it expanded its product offerings and entered new regional markets. Its application lacked scalability, leading to noticeable slowdowns, particularly during peak order intake and scheduling periods. It impacted user productivity and delayed production.

Evoke designed a tailored performance testing strategy and implemented it focusing on world usage patterns and business-critical workflows. The initiatives included:

• Mapping and modeling of key business workflows
• Designed a tailored performance testing framework
• Collaborating with development teams to optimize backend performance
• Enabled real-time resource usage and system health monitoring

Evoke’s solution significantly improved application responsiveness, scalability, and overall system reliability:

• Delivered a 40% improvement in response times for door configuration and order submission transactions.
• Achieved 98% transaction completion within 2 seconds under 800 concurrent users.
• Identified and resolved memory leaks during endurance testing, significantly reducing unplanned downtime.
• Boosted API throughput for inventory updates by 60%, enhancing the warehouse module’s performance.
• Validated the system’s readiness for seasonal demand spikes and partner expansion.
