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.
