            Scale Test

            Use metrics to plan scale tests. Book a slot in your sandbox instance calendar, and test at production peak load. Compare performance data from recent tests.

            Access Scale Test

            To get access, contact your customer success representative or account executive. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Scale, then click Scale Test.

            Considerations

            • We recommend Scale Test when you’re expecting production traffic above 120 requests per second. It lets you validate that your implementation can scale with no issues before you go live with a large rollout or peak event.
            • Scale Test is available as a paid add-on for customers with a Full Sandbox.
            • Even if your production instance doesn't reside on Hyperforce, you can use Scale Test if your sandbox does.
            • Scale Test is available in all Hyperforce regions except Singapore.

            Features

            Test Plan Creation
            • To create test plans, ask your Salesforce admin to turn on Scale Center in your production org.
            • Use this data to plan your scale tests. See how long pages are taking to load and optimize them to reduce Experienced Page Time (EPT). Use the View Server Side Traffic feature to get workload metrics such as triggers and platform events. Include these backend operations in your test scripts and test data.
            Test Environment Setup Create a sandbox trial run using the same code from production and review your test setup for accuracy. In the Trial Accuracy Checker section, a green color indicates accurate peak replication. Yellow indicates issues with your test setup that require attention. Red indicates that the sandbox test setup doesn't match production and you must fix it before your scale test.
            Test Scheduler

            View available test slots and book a slot. During the slot, we upgrade and enhance your sandbox infrastructure to match a particular production instance.

            • New slot bookings require 2 weeks of notice, based on capacity availability. Cancellations require at least 1 week of notice.
            • To see updated bookings after you delete or cancel a scale test, refresh the page.
            Load Generation Run traffic simulations using JMeter or Playwright scripts in a production-like sandbox environment to identify governor limit violations and validate app performance before peak demand.
            Test Execution After the testing slot ends, compare performance metrics from two or three recent tests and optimize your next test run. Use the Open in Scale Center link to access other performance and scale-related insights. Test Execution also contains an optional checklist of tasks that you can use to prepare for future testing.
            Live Monitoring During an active test run, view real-time metrics, logs, errors, and screenshots to observe your org's behavior under load as it happens.
            Test Reports After a test completes, generate a report summarizing key results to guide optimization before your next run.
