How to do Performance Testing with k6
Ғылым және технология
Performance testing is an important part of getting your application production ready. You don't want to wait until you have a sudden spike in traffic to realise that your application can't handle the load. In this video I cover the difference types of performance testing and how to do them using k6.

Great content! I expect that your channel will explode once programmers realize the succint value that you are providing. This is the 3rd of your videos that I've seen and I'm a fan.
great video, short and simple thanks!
Exactly what I needed. Was thinking of going with Jmeter, but I'll try this instead.
So good! It's concise, and has code, only 8 mins!
Jeeeez, this was a fantastic video, thanks so much! *Liked, subscribed!*
Thanks for these Alex! I'm a senior dev, but these are handy to find new tools or revise concepts and keep principles and patterns fresh in mind. One suggestion- please leave your titles, code examples, schematics and other and other graphics onscreen for longer, if possible?
Amazing video!!
Wow! Amazing video Very didactic, congratulations!

that BTTF light...I need that in my life.
Good informative video
What make/model is that metal pegboard mounted to your wall? It's a mix of pegboard grid and teardrop holes.
Awesome video Alex! I am not sure if you saw, but I sent you an email as I am inspired by your journey! "Just wanted to say I am loving your journey and how you are bridging from professional engineer to content creator. I really like the colour scheme as well, the purple is a great touch! I am reaching out as I would really love some advice and pick your brain on everything you are doing. I am on a similar journey, but like a few years behind! I am a data scientist but trying to do content on medium, substack and KZread."

Thanks Egor! Check your email 😉
7:06 If you expect that your system can handle 1000 request, what the “stress” it might experience at the level of 200 and later at 800 threads?
