• How To Start A Chat Plugin After The Page Has Fully Loaded

  Not heard of blackfire.io, I mainly use lighthouse, screamingfrog and CRUX data :D. Source: about 1 year ago

• Scaling a web application which is growing very fast

  Do you have XP with alternatives to blackfire.io? It may helps, but sounds a little expensive for evaluating performance issues. I found also MySQLTuner which is free (of course it only helps with the database). Source: over 1 year ago

• Scaling a web application which is growing very fast

  Go get a subscription to blackfire.io and profile your application. I guarantee you that your queries to the DB are shit and not using indices. Redis will just mask the issue. You probably also have a bunch of PHP code being ran in loops. Source: over 1 year ago

• Making sure your website won't crash again

  Although the connection with the API should no longer cause the trouble, we knew that this was the most compute-heavy part of the platform. So the fewer requests are sent to that API, the better the website performance would be. We used Blackfire.io to check how often the web app uses the API and we got interesting results. We noticed that the homepage, the most frequently visited page, used the API twice per each... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Guide to install xhprof (profiling) in wordpress to debug slow php

  Nice article; skimming over it, it seems exhaustive and well-written. But nowadays, I'd generally recommend blackfire.io over XHProf. Yes, it's a (mostly) closed source SAAS platform, and the free tier only offers the most absolutely basic of tools, but by the time performance really starts to matter on your wordpress site, I don't think ~$30 a month is a dealbreaker. Installation is easier, the visualisation... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Emulator images for Samsung devices?

  Your best option are probably real device testing sites like e.g. https://saucelabs.com/. Source: 11 months ago

• Simulate your website across many devices all in the same browser tab! Proof of concept for a micro saas I'm building in public :)

  There are service like this one. https://saucelabs.com/ is one. There used to be browser plugins to simulate a different browser. But as we found out over time: simulates devices aren't true to the real thing, so often you'll just simply run into problems in the simulated device ce that don't occur on the real device, or vice versa.

• Tool for app testing?!

  If so, check out Sauce Labs' Sauce Connect Proxy -- it's a built-in HTTP proxy server that opens a secure tunnel connection for testing between a Sauce Labs virtual machine or a real device and a website or a mobile app hosted on your local computer (localhost) or behind a corporate firewall.

• TestProject is closing down

  But it also meant that the only option to run your tests was to use your localhost or to connect to a third party cross-browser cloud provider (BrowserStack, SauceLabs, etc). - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
