Performance Testing and Consider Using CDN or Any Server-Side Caching Mechanism After Measuring the Performance

Summary:
As a website visitor, I want faster loading times for web pages, so that I can have a seamless and efficient browsing experience.

Acceptance Criteria:

1. The average page load time should be reduced by at least 20%.
2. Performance tests must be conducted on various devices and network conditions.
3. CDN integration or server-side caching should be implemented based on performance test results.

Additional Details:

UI Specification:

• No specific UI changes are expected. Focus is on backend optimization.

Technical Interface Specification:

• Integrate performance testing tools such as Lighthouse or Google PageSpeed Insights into the continuous integration pipeline.
• CDN integration or server-side caching mechanisms should be compatible with the existing web infrastructure.

System Level Specification:

• Performance tests should cover both static and dynamic content.
• CDN or caching mechanisms should be configured to serve static assets efficiently.

Tasks:

• Conduct baseline performance tests on the current web application.
• Identify bottlenecks and areas for improvement based on test results.
• Explore and implement CDN integration options.
• Explore and implement server-side caching mechanisms.
• Run post-implementation performance tests to validate improvements.

Quality Assurance

• Unit tests are created/updated to ensure new implementations do not introduce regressions.
• Integration tests (if applicable) are performed to validate the overall system functionality.
• Documentation (if applicable) is updated to reflect any changes related to CDN integration or caching mechanisms.

Notes

• Consideration should be given to the choice of CDN provider and its impact on global users.
• Collaborate with DevOps or infrastructure teams for seamless integration.
