GATLING FOR DEVELOPERS
The developer-first
load testing platform
Shift-left performance testing with code-first tools. Embed continuous performance validation into your CI/CD pipelines and build resilient, scalable systems that meet SLOs under any condition.


Engineered for how developers
build software
Code-first by design
Write and maintain load tests like you do application code. Test-as-code with JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Scala or Kotlin.
CI/CD native
Run tests automatically in your pipeline. Enforce SLAs, prevent regressions, and ship with confidence.
Lightweight and scalable
From local laptop runs to distributed cloud tests, Gatling’s engine gives you speed and flexibility, without complex setup.
Built for real engineering workflows
Start testing like you build: In code, in CI, and at scale.
Automated performance validation
Run tests at every stage of your CI/CD pipeline. Block underperforming builds and track regressions over time.

Observability and tracing integrations
Correlate test traffic with APM, traces, and metrics. Integrates with Datadog, Dynatrace, and more.

Infrastructure-as-code ready
Deploy and run tests with Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, or Helm. Spin up reproducible environments for consistent, production-like testing.

Modern protocol support
Choose your flavor: HTTP, WebSocket, gRPC, JMS, GraphQL. Gatling supports the protocols your systems
rely on. Ideal for APIs, service meshes, and real-time services.

Live dashboards and reporting
Visualize real-time test results and trends.Track latency, error rates, throughput, and test health with zero setup.

Common use cases for developer teams
Gatling helps developers build, test, and ship performant systems, from first commit to production readiness.
Microservices load testing
Test APIs and inter-service communication under load. Validate contract stability, performance, and latency under pressure.
Capacity planning and scaling
Simulate realistic traffic to identify infrastructure limits. Validate autoscaling behavior and inform cloud provisioning decisions.
CI/CD performance gate
Run tests on every PR, commit, or deployment. Fail builds that exceed latency or error thresholds. Track performance trends over time.
SLO & SLA validation
Test against latency targets, error rates, and throughput thresholds. Automate enforcement of performance budgets in pipelines.
Load testing with observability
Run Gatling to apply realistic traffic and integrate with APM/observability tools to correlate load with backend bottlenecks and detect issues early.
Pre-release load validation
Run performance tests on new features, releases, or architectural changes in staging or production-like environments.
"With Gatling Enterprise Edition, we can track our performance over time and allow our development teams to automate the scenarios and runs. Gatling enabled us to automate the performance impact assessment of new feature delivery continuously and before releases."
