Gatling VS Vegeta

Gatling: An open-source load and performance testing tool primarily designed for web applications, Gatling utilizes a simple domain-specific language (DSL) for creating and maintaining test scripts. It supports HTTP/2 and allows recording and generation of scenarios directly from a browser. The tool also provides detailed performance reports that are easy to analyze.

Performance and load testing are essential parts of GraphQL API testing. It ensures APIs can handle expected traffic volumes and respond within acceptable timeframes. You can use tools like Apache JMeter or Gatling to generate realistic loads and evaluate the API's performance under different scenarios. Techniques like batched queries and caching can help mitigate this issue.

New to the .NET community and trying to learn! I have used tools such as Apache JMeter (Java), gatling.io (Java) and Locust (Python) that are decent full featured web perf frameworks. Typically these integrate well with your code, and can be run as part of your unit/integration tests and produce offline reports

Gatling , this is what we tested concurrency with. Setting up might take a while depending on your exp. but the tool is solid.

I used SpringBoot 3.0.2, GraalVM 22 (JVM mode), a MacOS 2,6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7, running 1000 users for 5 minutes. The idea was to test how memory consumption and CPU usage evolve. Below, I compared the footprint of these three solutions. I collected the total count of requests, throughput, memory consumption, and CPU usage using VisualVM and Gatling.

Load test your code to simulate a production load (you can use tools like k6 or Gatling)

k6 is our preferred javascript based cloud tester for light webservices. gattling if you have (a monolith with) workflows and need more formalized code to prove/audit your testing.

It's read as "Ochikisu" and origin is the machine gun manufacturer Hotchkiss because this tool does not have as much firepower as the Gatling.

Vegeta worth a look if you want something a bit more sophisticated: https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

There are tons of tools to do this, I'll use Vegeta

To install vegeta, grab the right download url from https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta/releases/tag/v12.11.1 and download using the below command.

One of the easiest ways to send lots of fabricated requests at the same time is to use the Vegeta load testing tool. Being a load testing tool, it can send lots of requests consistently, every second, to the given target URL. You can read more about Vegeta on GitHub. The binary can be downloaded and used without installation.

Good morning what tool do you use to test your infra in terms of http load ? A tool that works, I tested : - https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta but it returns 0 errors or a http_net error from Golang - LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Canon) https://github.com/NewEraCracker/LOIC but the requests do not appear in my nginx logs and I feel no slowdown - Apache Jmeter https://jmeter.apache.org/ but I can't drop my infra and I have Java socket closed errors - K6 https://k6.io/ but I can't bring down my infra with - wrk https://github.com/wg/wrk no matter what parameter I put it doesn't make enough requests per second, I put the same parameters as on a tutorial and I don't get the same result...

I use tools like vegeta and wrk2 to answer those questions.

A module can be an executable and a library at the same time. For example, https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

Some tools to investigate: * https://prometheus.io/ * https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

No, not at all. You just need a tool like Vegeta.
