Gatling Load Testing2021-12-15T14:19:30+03:00

Gatling is an open-source load testing tool based on Scala, Akka, and Netty. It allows us to create and conduct high-performance, low-maintenance load tests on local and cloud computers.

Loadium with Gatling can be utilized in a variety of ways. You may use it to create an automated simulation for website performance testing, for example. Multiple parameters may be added to the script, and the Gatling configuration can be modified at any time. It also has excellent HTTP protocol support, making it a popular tool for testing HTTP servers.

Avoiding to load test your web application can be risky. If the product is exposed to an excessive load, the entire system can fall on its knees, offering nothing but a waste of time and resources and potentially unhappy users.

That’s why load testing is one of the crucial parts of performance testing.

Advantages of Gatling

  • Open-source. Gatling is a Scala-based open-source performance testing platform with a human-readable DSL that makes it easy to write and run tests.

  • Code Reusability and Versioning. We can add versioning to the Gatling source code, which will improve team cooperation and make it easier to monitor past modifications.

  • Multithreading.  Gatling makes use of the Netty framework and Akka toolkit, which are built on the actor model, which is distributed and fully asynchronous by design, preventing Gatling from allocating a new thread for each user. It allows a single thread to simulate a list of user trips.

Loadium The Best Alternative to Other Load Testing Tools? Absolutely Yes!

Disadvantages of Gatling

  • Protocol Support. Only supports HTTP, WebSockets, server-side events, and JMS (Java Message Service).

  • Lots of Scripting.  Gatling is purely code-based, so can be quite a learning curve to someone who isn’t familiar with Gatling.

  • Lack of Support Material. Compared to a tool like JMeter, there is a smaller user base and not a lot of support documentation available.

  • Test Execution Data. Response times can only be viewed upon test completion, requiring using a third-party solution.
