This test appears to be a sequential set of requests. Unless you're only going to have one request at a time in your application, tests like these are one step away from useless. Tests need to run concurrent requests, not just sequential requests. Concurrent tests (using load test tools) will give you a much more reliable idea of what is fast and slow within an application. Sequential tests simply tell you that something may be faster or slower, not that it will actually be faster or slower in a real environment.
