Awesome tool for running and simulating load against an Api

The most helpful thing about K6 is its ability to create realistic test scenarios in order to simulate real world traffic loads as well as different types of error conditions which are quite useful when it comes to performance tuning our APIs. I don't like how you can only use one type of API at once with this product if your goal was just simulation purposes but not actual stress tests (if needed). It's good because we were able to see what would happen under certain circumstances without…

Pros
  • Simple user interface
  • A lot more control over network configuration than usual web services testing frameworks.
  • Ability for multiple clients connected simultaneously through load balancing server very convenient, especially important considering that each client could be an entirely separate application altogether so they might need unique IP addresses assigned manually from DHCP rather having all requests go
Cons
  • There are nuances

Great tool for Load Testing and Stress Testing servers

I like how quickly it can be used to get up running with our servers without any setup or configuration required! The interface looks very simple which made me feel comfortable using this product right away as we are in need of something quick but also flexible enough when more complex tests would come along (more variables). Maybe add some additional features such us test results management? It's good if you don't have too much experience working under Linux/UNIX environments since there isn’t

Pros
  • Simple UI
  • Support for.NET 2+ frameworks including Unity 3D game engine integration.
  • Great customer service, fast response time via email &amp telephone calls
  • Very affordable costs compareed against similar alternative software products that provide same functionalities
Cons
  • None
