NeoLoad
Software designed for ongoing performance testing facilitates the automation of API load and application evaluations. In the case of intricate applications, users can create performance tests without needing to write code. Automated pipelines can be utilized to script these performance tests specifically for APIs. Users have the ability to design, manage, and execute performance tests using coding practices. Afterward, the results can be assessed within continuous integration pipelines, leveraging pre-packaged plugins for CI/CD tools or through the NeoLoad API. The graphical user interface enables quick creation of test scripts tailored for large, complex applications, effectively eliminating the time-consuming process of manually coding new or revised tests. Service Level Agreements (SLAs) can be established based on built-in monitoring metrics, enabling users to apply stress to the application and align SLAs with server-level statistics for performance comparison. Furthermore, the automation of pass/fail triggers utilizing SLAs aids in identifying issues effectively and contributes to root cause analysis. With automatic updates for test scripts, maintaining these scripts becomes much simpler, allowing users to update only the impacted sections while reusing the remaining parts. This streamlined approach not only enhances efficiency but also ensures that tests remain relevant and effective over time.
