摘要：Performance testing is one of the important Non-Functional testing in the Software development life
cycle. For a successful delivery of the software product a sound and accurate planning is needed for the software testing
activities. Good effort estimation is also needed for the Performance testing activity. Software testing effort estimation
helps in forecasting quality delivery of products. Estimations based on guesses and conjectures are going to drop the
performance testing projects into jeopardy.To improve realism in software Performance testing projects, it is better to
have knowledge about the testing effort estimation. A lot of studies were carried on to explore the techniques and
methods for estimating the efforts for the software functional testing. Very little have been discussed on the effort
estimation of Non-Functional testing, especially Performance testing. This paper mainly focuses on the effort
estimation of Performance testing activities which is needed for a successful delivery of quality product. Various
challenges, methods and approaches for estimating the efforts are discussed here in this paper.
