Testing laptop performance checklist
1. Pre-Testing Preparation
Ensure the laptop is fully charged or plugged in.
Close all unnecessary applications and programs.
Update the operating system and drivers to the latest versions.
Disable any antivirus or security software temporarily (if safe to do so).
2. Hardware Performance Tests
Run a CPU benchmark test (e.g., Cinebench, Geekbench).
Perform a GPU benchmark test (e.g., 3DMark, Unigine Heaven).
Test the RAM speed and performance using tools like MemTest86.
Check the hard drive or SSD health and performance with CrystalDiskMark or similar tools.
3. Battery Performance Tests
Measure battery life under typical usage conditions.
Run a battery stress test to check for maximum discharge time.
Monitor battery temperature during use to ensure it is within safe limits.
4. Thermal and Noise Assessment
Use temperature monitoring software (e.g., HWMonitor) to check CPU and GPU temperatures under load.
Listen for fan noise and check for unusual sounds during operation.
Assess laptop surface temperatures during intensive tasks.
5. Network Performance Tests
Test Wi-Fi speed using an online speed test tool.
Check latency and packet loss using ping tests.
Evaluate Bluetooth performance by connecting to peripherals.
6. Usability and User Experience
Assess boot time and system responsiveness.
Test the functionality of input devices (keyboard, touchpad).
Evaluate display quality, including brightness, color accuracy, and resolution.
Check audio quality through speakers and headphones.
7. Post-Testing Review
Document all test results and observations.
Compare performance metrics against manufacturer specifications.
Identify any performance bottlenecks or issues for further investigation.
Suggest potential upgrades or optimizations based on findings.
