Performance Test Suite

Overview

Execute load testing, stress testing, and performance benchmarking to identify bottlenecks, establish baseline metrics, and verify SLA compliance. Supports k6 (recommended), Artillery, Apache JMeter, Locust (Python), and autocannon (Node.js).

Prerequisites

• Performance testing tool installed (k6, artillery, locust, jmeter, or autocannon)
• Target application deployed in a production-like environment (not local dev)
• Baseline performance metrics or SLA targets (e.g., p95 < 200ms, 99.9% availability)
• Monitoring stack accessible (Grafana, CloudWatch, Datadog) for resource metrics during tests
• Test data sufficient to avoid cache-only responses
