The Design And Fulfillment Of General Performance Test Simulator In Banking Business System In China Construction Bank

With the development of IT, the general structure of bank has advanced towardsservice-oriented architecture (SOA). More and more systems employ open serviceinterface via the information lane of enterprise to provide service outside. With theincreasing number of banking systems, the kinds of software and hardware platform,which the system adopts, have been growing sustainably, and more need of system testbecomes apparent. However, there exists the biggest problem that the tested banksystem over-depends on background system during the testing process, so manybackground systems exist various kinds of packet format. So the program of packetcombination should be written according to each background system. That will resultin the long period of research and development, the low rate of code reuse and the badperformance of maintenance etc., all of which increase the cost of development andbring troubles to the bank test.This article focuses on the practical need of performance test of bank system andanalyses the process of performance test and recent regular basic method, gives a deepinsight of problems and deficiencies existing in it. The article suggests a simulator ofperformance test, and the module of packet combination and the method of packetcombination. Different kinds of echo packets in background system are gained throughcombining the general packets according to the packet format definition ofmulti-background-system, which realizes the simulator of performance test withmulti-background-system, which can correspond to the tested system. By using thissimulator, the period of research and development is shortened, the rate of code reuseis improved and moreover, the cost of the test of software development is reduced.This performance test simulator is applied to the software development in ChinaConstruction Bank successfully and brings the great convenience to bank software test.
