LOAD TESTING TOOLS
Blazemeter, JMeter, SOASTA (now CloudTest), gatling and locust, http://gettaurus.org/
Blazermeter uses JMeter, Gatling, Selenium & Taurus

Hey folks, not sure where to ask this, but has anyone ever discussed *load/perf testing* in this workspace? Curious what services/tools folks are using (or like/love) tied to this. We've used Blazemeter, JMeter, SOASTA (now CloudTest). Thanks!
MH [8:36 PM]
I’m a fan of gatling and locust.
GC [9:14 PM]
I've used locust but was skeptical when I looked harder at the numbers it was telling me. We moved to Blazemeter after
MH [9:15 PM]
I have to check out blazemeter, IIRC it was java based so when I did the analysis that invalidated it from consideration.
GC [9:24 PM]
I held my nose
AB [9:24 PM]
@MH Ah, good catch. Likely why one of the groups here at NBCU use it, given their deep use of Java. We're more Node and Go for NBC News Digital.
MH [9:24 PM]
:face_with_rolling_eyes: It was an environmental thing, I’ll take java over node or python any day of the week.

The thing that’s cool about gatling is scala runs on the JVM too :stuck_out_tongue:
AB [9:25 PM]
Hah.
So some of the Blazemeter tests NBCU has wired up appear to reference and execute Java code. Any idea if Blazemeter can execute code/scripts in other languages?
I do like it otherwise.
We're going to take a look at CloudTest, which Akamai owns now.
MH [9:34 PM]
I believe blaze is scripted in part and extended via java. I don’t know if you can use kotlin or scala, sorry.
