cloud-load-testing

Intro We can gain a lot of insight into how applications or websites perform thanks to load testing. If you’re serious about testing, running tests inside your local environment will only take you so far. Eventually you will need some kind of solution that allows you to scale. This is where cloud load testing comes into play. Before the cloud, testing was very expensive to run. The costs associated with running & maintaining the hardware neededRead More →

We would like to introduce a RedLine13 plugin which supports sending load agent system and process metrics to InfluxDB via Telegraf.  There exists a multitude of reasons for wanting to do such, just as one customer has implemented a sophisticated real-time performance metrics dashboard using Grafana. In this step-by-step guide, we will cover the following: Using this plugin Using the plugin with JMeter BackEnd Listener Available stats How the plugin works on load agents Using thisRead More →

UBIK Load Pack Video Streaming Plugin 3.0.0 Our friends at UBIK-Ingénierie have recently updated their video streaming plugin. With the launch of version 3.0.0, UBIK has renamed the HLS Plugin to “UBIK Load Pack Video Streaming Plugin”. Prior to the launch of the original HLS plugin, there wasn’t really an easy or efficient means to test video streaming inside of Apache JMeter. So the UBIK team created the HLS Plugin as a means to do so. HLS, orRead More →

AWS Update

We are always looking for ways to make load testing even cheaper. Many of our frequent users are running larger and longer load tests as they progress through integrating performance testing into the software development lifecycle.  With that growth, each load agent could potentially generate logs or .jtl files which are multiple gigabytes per load agent. As a post-test process, we merge JMeter JTL files with the generated Apache JMeter Dashboard Report (similar is done for theRead More →

RedLine13 provides a command and control architecture for storing, planning, starting, monitoring, and reporting performance tests at scale.
