Almost every company in the world needs to test its scalability and performance of their products or applications.

In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of Gatling, an open-source performance testing tool that is in great demand in the software industry. You will start by learning the basics of performance testing including scalability testing and stress testing.

You will then move on to more advanced concepts such as writing Gatling scripts, understanding web page performance and simulating network throttling using puppeteer and lighthouse tools.

Lastly, you will learn to set up Continuous Integration (CI) using Jenkins for Gatling which will be useful for running tests remotely. By the end of this course, you will have some new great skills for your resume.

Now, we understand the basics of web page performance, in this lesson we will go through the WPP metrics in detail with an example.

### Example - analyze web page performance of the educative website

Let’s open the [pagespeed insights](https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/) and analyze the performance metrics for the educative.io website.

The below images show the performance rating of the mobile and desktop website page load speeds. The *rating* of **42** is under the slow speed category for mobile, and the *rating* of **85** is under moderate speed category for desktop. 

There are various factors that help us analyze the page speed, such as **FCP**  (First Content Paint), **FMP** (First Meaning Paint), and **TTI** (Time to Interact).
