Have you ever stayed up all night before a major release wondering "Will it hold?", or watched helplessly as your application buckled under a traffic surge—resulting in abandoned carts, lost revenue, and damaged brand reputation?
That's why we created this resource.
Here, you'll learn
- The Critical Difference Between Load and Stress Testing: Understand how to combine these strategies into a phased approach that reveals not just capacity, but true system resilience.
- Why Realism Matters: Why traditional "all-at-once" tests create false confidence, and how to design "gradual ramping" scenarios that mimic organic user behavior to catch issues like connection leaks and database contention.
- How to Switch to Grafana k6: Discover why we standardize on this lightweight, open-source tool over heavier options like JMeter for seamless, distributed testing.
- Step-by-Step Implementation: Get a practical walkthrough on scripting in JavaScript, setting thresholds, and visualizing live metrics to catch bottlenecks—like massive dataset returns—before they reach production.
- Best Practices for Reporting: How to deliver evidence-based results that give stakeholders the clear "Go/No-Go" signal they need to launch with confidence.
