Kubernetes Scalability & application performance testing

  • September 12, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
java/maven tool with posibilites integrating into current java projects (with a maven plugin help). Native integration with Github Actions. Gatling enteprise provides meaninful graphs & stats for A/B testing. Gatling Enterprise support is responsive and valuable.
What do you dislike about the product?
No native integrations with monitoring tools (DataDog. etc).
No test scehduler.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Release-to-Release API perfromance tests for web-faced application.
Kubernetes scalability & Chaos testing were Gatling acting as a traffic load provider with defineded test acceptance criteria (as a code).

So easy to use and effective

  • August 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is so easy and intuitive to use. The graphs show all kinds of information.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hm, not sure if I dislike something about Gatling. It just makes sense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to determine how our API endpoint behaves under load from users.

Best Performance Testing Software

  • August 18, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We needed to do performance testing on our mobile application then. It was Gatling that allowed us to achieve our goal and expose specific components that was causing bottlenecks. The flexibility of Scala allowed us to be creative in the performance development. The automatic capture of objects was also helpful and made it easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really. It worked well for us. Although our team was technical and learned to use Scala on the fly. It was fairly straightforward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Exposing the specific calls to the backend especially when doing the load test.

Powerful load tests in an expressive, readable language

  • August 17, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to describe load tests in an expressive, readable DSL (Domain Specific Language) is wonderful. It helps with understanding and documentation of tests. The non-blocking request model used underneath results in a scalable load test framework.
What do you dislike about the product?
More protocol support would be helpful to test legacy systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to describe load tests in an expressive, readable DSL (Domain Specific Language) is a huge benefit. Load tests are able to be code reviewed and versioned controlled much like the rest of the software.

Fantastic tool that gets the job done

  • August 17, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As an open-source performance testing tool, it excels at its intended purpose, particularly by efficiently invoking virtual users without impacting your local computer's resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
I invested a significant amount of time learning how to accomplish tasks with limited examples. Like any new tool, there was a learning curve involved. Initially, I focused on learning Gatling by studying the Scala DSL, which had a richer set of examples available. This helped me validate specific aspects against packaged software. Later, I transitioned to the Java DSL, which offered a smaller pool of examples for reference.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gatling plays a crucial role in performance validation of page transitions. While application configurations often perform satisfactorily, integrating various components can lead to performance degradation. Gatling can effectively identify and address these areas of concern.

Market leader in the world of performance testing

  • July 30, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Gatling is easy to use (even when you do not know Scala at all! I wrote tests on my first day)
- Good OOTB reporting
- Gatling Scala-based DSL allows to write complex scenarios, which are impossible with some other competitors (for example, unpack a protobuf response and assert its elements)
- Impressive performance based on async Akka toolkit
- Cloud managed solution is also available
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I *dislike* about Gatling, I really have just one point here:

- Gatling is relatively new so community is smaller than of peers (if you have to write non-trivial solutions, you are likely to be the first to do it)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gatling is a great solution for load testing due to its extensibility, performance and out of the box reporting.

It is easy to compose and run the load suite in a matter of hours, even when you have no previous experience.

Gatling repeatedly allowed me to identify weak chains in the complex application environment and address them.

Extremely versatile and powerful performance testing tool

  • July 20, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is great that Gatling offers a free open source version as well as paid for enterprise options. What sets Gatling apart from other leading performance testing tools is that it is extremely flexible and versatile as you can pretty much develop any logic to support your Gatling tests. Gatling is also continuously improving and coming out with new features which makes the tool even more powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some performance testers might not like Gatling because it is very dev oriented compared to other performance testing tools. It also doesn't support as many protocols as you'd get with HP's tooling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Due to it's versatility, we are able to use Gatling to carry out all of our performance testing needs. We have very complex user journeys that are run at extremely high volumes and we wouldn't be able to carry out these tests if it wasn't for Gatling.

Nice tool, ideal for initial testing of web apps

  • July 08, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Open source, relatively easy to use, online tutorial, documentation is easy to read
What do you dislike about the product?
User UI can be improved, lack of more complex examples in the doc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gatlin is a nice tool to load test simple web apps; in more complex scenarios, it can be useful to test something before a more complex load testing approach. All in all, it's a useful tool for web devs

Massive scale, great customization, great customer support

  • July 04, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The customer support has been some of the best I have come across.
We required complex use cases for requests and gatling's DSL supported all the customizations we needed.

Being able to scale and test load test at massive traffic (the main reason we opted for gatling - we wanted to test at 1 million requests per second from multiple regions) has been amazing
What do you dislike about the product?
The public API for automating your scenarios rather limiting. i.e you can run simulations but not create them. Perhaps that has changed now

Although now it supports Java, when we started they only supported Scala.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to test at a massive scale, generating traffic of 1 million requests per second which was coming in from multiple regions. Gatling integrated easily with AWS and allowed us to test our application.
As a developer it provided a lot of flexibility to generate complex traffic scenarios, and the UI looked good enough to be presented to managers.
