In this article we will evaluate one customer&#8217;s experience on our platform, and also discuss why RedLine13 is ideally suited for your high volume JMeter testing needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One Customer\u2019s Experience with RedLine13<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A RedLine13 SaaS customer talked about using RedLine13 to run high volume load tests of 100 million requests per hour with JMeter and RedLine13 at the recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/blog\/2020\/11\/first-redline13-customer-advisory-board\/\">RedLine13 Customer Advisory Board<\/a> meeting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They first became a RedLine13 customer a little over a year ago and have ramped up quickly, running over 700 tests on RedLine13 in that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their next step is to get the high volume tests into automation. They are doing this by leveraging the <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/ApiDoc\">RedLine13 API<\/a>,  <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/powershell\/scripting\/overview?view=powershell-7.1\" target=\"_blank\">PowerShell<\/a> scripts, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Azure pipelines (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/devops\/pipelines\/get-started\/what-is-azure-pipelines?view=azure-devops#:~:text=Azure%20Pipelines%20is%20a%20cloud,it%20available%20to%20other%20users.&amp;text=Azure%20Pipelines%20combines%20continuous%20integration,ship%20it%20to%20any%20target.\" target=\"_blank\">Azure Pipelines<\/a>, <em>etc<\/em>.  They&#8217;ve also built a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"C# (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dotnet\/csharp\/\" target=\"_blank\">C#<\/a> wrapper class for the RedLine13 API so that it can be called from code within Microsoft products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though they continue to use the web interface to manually run certain tests and collect those results, they prefer to use the API for high volume load tests where they \u201c<em>scale it up to the breaking point<\/em>\u201d.\u00a0 Of course scaling load-generating instances to high volumes is possible with manual test execution, the API leverages the power of automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;<em>I really appreciate the API<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p><cite>\u2013 SaaS customer using RedLine13<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>They also talked about the future of load testing and how they see RedLine13 expanding the use of the API to help them.  Here is the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/gjTHQnQTEe4\">video<\/a> of their talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High Volume JMeter Tests on RedLine13<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With RedLine13, we have customers who routinely run JMeter tests at this volume and even much higher.\u00a0 It is an elementary task to write a JMeter test plan which generates a relatively high volume of requests.\u00a0 However, there are practical limitations to how many requests can be expected per a single load-generating instance.  These constraints include networking performance, CPU load, memory, <em>etc<\/em>.\u00a0 The cloud based load testing architecture of RedLine13 effectively removes these constraints by leveraging parallel execution and multiplicity.\u00a0 In other words, once you have a JMeter test, you can simply \u201cdial up\u201d the load to any desired level in just a few short clicks.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1308\" height=\"764\" src=\"http:\/\/54.161.25.214\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/RL13-Multiplicity-ii.png\" alt=\"Diagram contrasting single-instance JMeter test execution with parallel JMeter test execution.\" class=\"wp-image-8188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/RL13-Multiplicity-ii.png 1308w, https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/RL13-Multiplicity-ii-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/RL13-Multiplicity-ii-1024x598.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/RL13-Multiplicity-ii-768x449.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1308px) 100vw, 1308px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the benefits of our platform is total abstraction of all load-generating server lifecycle and execution tasks.\u00a0 Upon clicking the \u201c<em>Start Test<\/em>\u201d button, there is little to do besides wait for the results to come in.\u00a0 RedLine13 also takes this a step further by automating the data collection from multiple parallel instances of your test and integrating this into combined tables and visualizations.\u00a0 This can be a huge timesaver for massively parallel JMeter test runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can read about other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/blog\/2020\/12\/redline13-customers\/\">RedLine13 customers<\/a> who spoke at the RedLine13 Customer Advisory Board about why they chose RedLine13 and how they are using it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can try your own test, whether it is one request or a high volume test, on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.redline13.com\/Service\">RedLine13<\/a>\u00a0for free.
