skill-testing-load

Load testing validates API performance by executing deterministic test configurations across scenarios like smoke, stress, and soak tests. This skill defines specific k6 and Artillery test configurations with thresholds to ensure repeatable performance validation results.

Spike testing scenarios validate performance against sudden traffic bursts, while soak testing evaluates system stability under sustained load over time. This skill defines both scenario types alongside smoke and stress tests to measure latency, throughput, and error rates.

k6 load tests integrate into CI pipelines using JS-based scripts with configurable stages and strict thresholds for SLA validation. This skill provides CI-ready reporting and deterministic test configurations to ensure repeatable results across staging and production environments.

Artillery YAML scenarios are configured for performance testing by defining load stages and thresholds for API endpoints. This skill provides Artillery YAML-based load scenarios specifically designed for CI integration and validating SLAs across frontend flows.

API load testing metrics include latency, throughput, and error rate to validate SLAs and assess production risks. This skill specifies test scenario definitions and thresholds to measure these metrics deterministically across API endpoints and web app flows.

Load testing works for both API endpoints and frontend web flows by validating SLAs across staging and production environments. This skill supports k6 JS-based tests and Artillery YAML scenarios to execute end-to-end performance testing workflows.
