NeoLoad
Software for continuous performance testing to automate API load and application testing. For complex applications, you can design code-free performance tests. Script performance tests in automated pipelines for API test. You can design, maintain, and run performance tests in code. Then analyze the results within continuous integration pipelines with pre-packaged plugins for CI/CD tools or the NeoLoad API. You can quickly create test scripts for large, complex applications with a graphical user interface. This allows you to skip the tedious task of manually coding new or updated tests. SLAs can be defined based on the built-in monitoring metrics. To determine the app's performance, put pressure on it and compare SLAs with server-level statistics. Automate pass/fail triggers using SLAs. Contributes to root cause analysis. Automatic test script updates make it easier to update test scripts. For easy maintenance, update only the affected part of the test and re-use any remaining.
