QA had thoroughly tested the new release, performed Unit tests, functional tests and yet… we still crashed. The ultimate goal in development is to make sure the application works for the end users in the production env, not just in QA. This is where load testing and Gatling come in.
This session will give you some basics about load testing, how to avoid common pitfalls and how to build efficient load tests with Gatling and Java. It discusses network protocols, application behavior and statistics.
Gatling is an open source load- and performance-testing framework based on Scala, Akka and Netty. The first stable release was published on January 13, 2012. This automated software testing tool is designed to be used as a load testing tool for analyzing and measuring the performance of a variety of services, with a focus on web applications, APIs, and microservices.
