Hey! I’m NaveenKumar.
I’m a full stack developer.
I build stuff.
And I know nothing. 😉
Thanks for stopping by! I started QAInsights to help software testers with test automation and performance testing. And now, this blog is dedicated to performance testing tools, my performance testing community, and training I offer to individuals, teams, and companies.

Let’s chat! You can schedule an appointment here, or ping me on LinkedIn.
Buy me a coffee (or a tea!)
QAInsights is a passion project, and I invest a lot of time into making it as high-quality as possible. And your support helps motivate me to continue creating more tutorials, and more content!
As little as buying me a coffee (or a tea!) helps me a lot!

“Professional performance test engineer NaveenKumar Namachivayam took Civo Kubernetes out for a spin in his guide (and video) to deploy and run JMeter tests in Kubernetes. The guide runs through everything you need from starting your cluster and deploying JMeter to it, running your test suites and eventually viewing the results.”
“Namachivayam found that the InfluxDB-Grafana integration is simple and straightforward, and that running both in Docker containers is even easier. This integration helps him to monitor performance data in real time and also take the necessary steps while the test is running.”
“The main reason shift left testing is not happening is product owners are not engaging the testers in the early phases of design and development. They do not give much importance to testing before the application hits production“
“Quality of a software relies on testing often and involving testers very early in the design and development life cycle. Deploy a risk management practice to identify, assess, prioritize, measure, and mitigate. Once the product goes live, listen to customer feedback for a consistent improvement”.
