Recently we added support for JDK 11 via a custom RedLine13 plugin. By activating this plugin for a JMeter 5.4 or higher load test, you can elect to run with the Java 11 runtime.Read More →
In this blog post, we will be guiding you through this one-time process of integrating AWS with your RedLine13 account.Read More →
Amazon Web Services (AWS) announces the availability of EC2 C5n instances that can utilize up to 100 Gbps of network bandwidth. Redline13 supports EC2 C5n instances for load tests which require high network usage load tests. Now when you’re selecting your AWS server you can choose a C5n instance. Even though AWS provides this extremely high network bandwidth, the cost is still low. RedLine13 gives you the power and control to choose a C5n instance. What otherRead More →
Many users of RedLine13 are familiar with our web interface for running load tests. Yet, are you also aware that we offer a full-featured API? In this post we will walk you through how to get started with the RedLine13 API. We will provide examples that show you how you can leverage this powerful feature to achieve new levels of automation running your load tests. Almost any task that can be accomplished using the web UIRead More →
We have recently released a new feature that allows JMeter to access the RedLine13-assigned Test ID as well as the Server ID directly from the test plan. If you already know how JMeter exposes options set at the command line, accessing this information will be familiar. (Otherwise, you may want to refer to this post for some additional context.) This information will be undoubtedly useful for a variety of purposes. However, one specific example would beRead More →
One area where JMeter certainly excels is in its seeming infinite extensibility, including a dizzying array of plugins and multiple scripting options on top of an already versatile test designer. Along these lines, here we will be discussing how to set properties as command line options through the Redline13 user interface. Ultimately, these will be passed to load agents running JMeter, but the hard parts will be managed by the RedLine13 service. As a standalone tool,Read More →
Despite our best efforts, we have all been there before. That load test that just concluded generated thousands of errors that it shouldn’t have. It could have been a miscalculation or a shifted decimal place on estimated traffic volumes; or rather it was a configuration setting on the target machines that was overlooked. Regardless, we wish we could have intercepted that test early in its execution, possibly saving valuable time, data charges, and virtual machine costs.Read More →
Making sense of load test performance metrics and displaying in a manner necessary to drive business decisions can be a challenging endeavor. This data usually comes from multiple different sources, and collecting it can be cumbersome. One way to lessen this burden is to automate the collection of these performance metrics into a unified analysis platform. This is precisely how one customer has leveraged simple plugins and a popular time series database to effortlessly display theirRead More →
The Results page now has more features. We have updated the actions layout to display the most relevant and useful options at the conclusion of a test, as well as during test execution. Improved layout with additional options. New buttons Print. This feature has always been available but not as easy to find. It now appears in a convenient location on the results page. Report. This new feature allows you to send us a message ifRead More →
