US Patent 10212058 System and method for detecting system's performance regression

Performance regression between a first version of an application and a second version of the application are detected using a comparison between transaction response times measured at a plurality of resource levels of a computer system. A first set of transaction response times (for the first version) are used to determine lower and upper limit line graphs. A new line graph determined from second set of transaction response times (for the second version) can be compared with the lower and upper limit line graphs to detect a performance regression.
