2. Check page load on slow connections
3. Check response time for any action under light, normal, moderate and heavy load conditions
4. Check performance of database stored procedures and triggers
5. Check database query execution time
6. Check for load testing of application
7. Check for stress testing of application
8. Check CPU and memory usage under peak load condition

What is Log4j and what is the use of log4j in java

With log4j it is possible to enable logging at runtime without modifying the application binary. The log4j package is designed so that these statements can remain in shipped code without incurring a heavy performance cost. Logging behavior can be controlled by editing a configuration file, without touching the application binary.

Logging equips the developer with detailed context for application failures. On the other hand, testing provides quality assurance and confidence in the application. Logging and testing should not be confused. They are complementary. When logging is wisely used, it can prove to be an essential tool.

To add to this, with Log4J you can dynamically switch logging on/off. You can change the format dynamically (do you want timestamps ? datestamps ?) and you can change where the logging goes (to the console ? to a file ? to a database ?), all without changing your code.

You can also log to multiple sources at once. In an application I'm working on now, when I'm testing the application, I log to both the console (so I can see debug information as well as any errors that pop up) along with the standard log file that's always logged to. Quite handy

The beauty of log4j is in its architecture of appenders and layouts. As mentioned by previous poster, you change the aspect of logging of your application without much hassle, most of the time it's just a matter of simple configuration. One of the usages I would add on my part is centralized logging which can be added to your application without touching its code base

what is maxSession maxInstances in selenium grid and differences

MaxInstances This says....how many instances of same version of browser can run over the Remote System.

For example, I have a FireFox12,IE and I declared the command as follows
-browser browserName=firefox,version=12,maxInstances=5,platform=LINUX
-browser browserName=InternetExplorer,version=9.0,maxInstances=5,platform=LINUX
So I can run 5 instances of Firefox 12 and as well as 5 instances of IE9 at the same time in remote machine. So total user can run 10 instances of different browsers (FF12 & IE9) in parallel.

MaxSession This says....how many browsers (Any Browser and any version) can run in parallel at a time in the remote system. So this overrides the Max Instances settings and can restrict the number of browser instances that can run in parallel.

For above example, when maxSession=1 forces that you never have more than 1 browser running.

With maxSession=2 you can have 2 Firefox tests at the same time, or 1 Internet Explorer and 1 Firefox test).
Irrespective of what MaxInstances you have defined.

How to give comment on Json file

 "_comment" : "comment text goes here...",

The JSON should all be data, and if you include a comment, then it will be data too.

You could have a designated data element called "_comment" (or something) that would be ignored by apps that use the json data.

You would probably be better having the comment in the processes that generate/receive the json, as they are supposed to know what the json data will be in advance, or at least the structure of it.

But if you decided to...

Firefox can't find the server at services.addons.mozilla.org

whenever you try to add some addons on your firefox browser ... then this type of error will come.

So if you want to install example firebug , firepath addons...
