When to Use
- Validating service performance under expected and peak load
- Finding the breaking point of an endpoint
- Testing sudden traffic spikes (e.g., promotional push notifications)
- Detecting memory leaks or connection pool exhaustion (soak tests)
- Running performance smoke tests before releases
Critical Patterns
Test Types
| Test Type | Purpose | VUs | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smoke | Verify service works under minimal load | 1-5 | 30s |
| Load | Validate under expected production traffic | 50-100 | 5m |
| Stress | Find breaking point | 100→500 ramp | 10m |
