RedLine13 Users

RedLine13 Users from across the globe have a lot to say about what’s important to them when load testing. Singapore Lyon Lim, Cofounder and CEO of PigeonLab, maker of PigeonHole Live: “An indispensable tool we use to load/stress test upcoming features, as well as optimising performance. Beneath the hood, your tech is solid! RedLine13 has been able to help us test large scale events for Pigeonhole Live. For example, before we released Quiz, we made sureRead More →

API metrics endpoint

The new API metrics endpoint gives you full access to performance data within your RedLine13 test. Instead of downloading the stats data you can query for a single metric or multiple metrics with your test. You can use this data to build your own graphs or trending information. We built this because of a customer request so that they could create their own dashboard. See the API documentation. And for parameters and format, see the new endpoint.Read More →

Load Testing in a Continuous Integration Environment

In this blog post, we will talk about Load Testing in a Continuous Integration Environment and how to effectively integrate with cloud systems using RedLine13. The crucial point of the this blog post is that we are preparing our load test script just using Selenium code. Before we begin our example, let’s briefly talk about the technologies used in Continuous Integration (CI) processes in our post. Jenkins is an open source automation server and an integrationRead More →

Data Driven Testing with Excel Files

In our previous blog post, we wrote about Data Driven Testing (DDT) using CSV files in JMeter. Excel files are another popular approach. This blog post will show step by step how to do Data Driven Testing with Excel files. Contrary to CSV files, we will import some external libraries in JMeter and then write a few lines of code to perform data driven tests. The other important aim of this blog post is that insteadRead More →

RedLine13 Improvements help load test up to the "Red Line"

We’ve implemented a number of improvements, called Release 2018-06-22, to help make RedLine13 more useful to you. They include user interface improvements, bug fixes, better reliability and more. Below are a handful of those updates. New Features Sometimes, JMeter tests that ended abruptly or were cancelled would fail to generate the final JMeter report due to JMeter’s JTL file being truncated. We’ve added code to detect and correct that so you can see the report forRead More →

What is Load Testing? There are a lot of good definitions. Wikipedia: “Load testing generally refers to the practice of modeling the expected usage of a software program by simulating multiple users accessing the program concurrently. “A better way to define it may be to ask ‘what are the objectives of your load testing?’ We wrote a blog post three years ago about the objectives of load testing: #1 Common Sense of Load Testing. How haveRead More →

Rest APIs are increasingly popular these days.  They are also frequently being used in Microservices. In this guide, we are going to test REST APIs with authentication using JMeter.  We will see that HTTP Headers play a crucial role in access authentication. Introduction Let’s imagine you want to measure your Rest API request with JMeter and configure the request using JSON format and click the run button.  You will most likely receive an error from theRead More →
