The difference between synthetic and real world (RUM) testing?
Synthetic Testing , also called “Synthetic Performance philippines phone number list Monitoring” and “Active Monitoring”, is a simulated health check of your website.
It allows you to measure a series of metrics such as Response Time, Load Time, the number of resources that make up a page and the dimensions, all this by simulating different types of connection (3G, 4G, ADSL, fiber etc ...).
You can also test a production website once it's live.
how you compare to your competitors;
How the design of your pages affects web performance;
how the new version of your website performs in relation to the previous one (before/after benchmarking).
RUM stands for “Real User Measurement” and is the practice of measuring the experience of real users as they navigate through a website.
Humans have many differences from machines, and these differences are what makes RUM different from synthetic testing and monitoring.
With RUM you can measure the performance of a site and monitor how Web Performance goes over time, the environments of your real users (operating system, browser, etc...), how third-party scripts behave, etc...
RUM is a passive monitor that listens to all traffic on your website.
