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.

Performance Test Automation 101: Gatling, Lighthouse, & Jenkins

In the previous lessons, we discussed the basics of performance testing; now we'll learn about the different types of performance testing in detail, starting with scalability testing.

# What is scalability testing?

In this type of testing, we measure the performance of the system in terms of its capability to scale with an increased load (from a hardware and software perspective).


Let’s say a system performs well with an expected latency for 100 concurrent users. Now we have increased the load to 300 concurrent users.
 
🧠 ***Quick Question** What would be the effect of increased load on the overall performance of the system?*

Learn what scalability testing is and its key metrics.
