Gatling is a famous framework for load testing.
I want to use my own example to explain why I chose Gatling over Jmeter.
There is a myth on the web that Jmeter is simpler than Gatling, but this imaginary simplicity can be expensive when the load is hefty.
My team was given the task to load the service, and unfortunately, I was unable to achieve the necessary figures in the number of users, but when I discovered Gatling, life began to play out in new colours.
Gatling is based on three technologies: Scala, Akka actors, and Netty.
In the talk, I will tell you about how to use Gatling. Why Gatling but not Jmeter.
