k6 is a developer-centric, free and open-source load testing tool built for making performance testing a productive and enjoyable experience. Using k6, you'll be able to catch performance regression and problems earlier, allowing you to build resilient systems and robust applications.
Quickly build test cases to validate the performance of your APIs or microservices. Validate that your system can handle the expected volume of traffic, and catch SLA/SLO-breaking performance regressions in CI before they reach production.
Built primarily for load testing, k6 tests can with advantage be reused for performance monitoring of your APIs and microservices in production.
Features:
- Seamless scaling to the cloud: Designed to use the same test in a local, distributed or cloud environment. It provides an unified experience for various usage.
- Built for automation: Designed for automating your performance tests. Get Pass/Fail behavior on your performance goals.
- Write tests in Javascript code: Full scripting language to write realistic load tests. Reuse modules and Javascript libraries to build and maintain your test suite.
- Multiple choices for storage: k6 can output test results to various backends and formats (Grafana, DataDog, Kafka, JSON).
- Easy-to-use APIs and CLI: Designed for developers by developers. The k6 API and CLI is intuitive, flexible and powerful.
- High-performance tool: The k6 engine is written in Go making to be one of the best performing load testing tools.
The best developer experience for load testing.
