FWIW, it works on QubesOS, which is Xen based. Though it works only in my Fedora and Debian VMs, but not on my Archlinux-based one. I think that's because I have WINE installed in …

Unfortunately not... At some point in the far future, we might release support for Go "scripting" [1] or we might extend xk6 [2] so it allows different script types, but those thin…

This used to be an issue with older k6 versions, but since v0.27.0 we have arrival-rate executors [1] that should address the biggest issue of coordinated omission. And we've alway…

I was skimming your "extensive" article again, and I saw this little gem I'd forgotten about: https://github.com/ragnarlonn/curl-basher ^^

The canonical way to record web traffic are HAR files: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAR_(file_format) You can export HAR files from all web browsers and a lot of proxies and other…

I am one of the k6 developers. I've commented in a bunch of threads here, but if you have any questions, feel free to AMA :) I'll be around for the next ~1h and then probably later…

This very much depends on your available hardware and the complexity of the load test. Following the advice in https://k6.io/docs/testing-guides/running-large-tests , and having a …

That's one of the main uses, yes. Although k6 gives you a lot of flexibility to decide what your pass/fail criteria are with its custom metrics ( https://k6.io/docs/using-k6/metric…

I might be missing something, but k6 should be able to completely cover all of your use cases? I am one of the k6 developers, can you share exactly what the missing piece was? > te…

There is auto-completion, see https://k6.io/docs/misc/intellisense Regarding debugging, that's unfortunately unlikely to come any time soon... We'd need support for that in the JS …

Yes, that's it. If the C++ application exposes some service, then k6 might be the tool to test how it behaves under load now (or in the future). The only protocols we currently sup…

I am not completely sure why the Go stdlib's HTTP client (which k6 uses) is faster than the NodeJS one. I think part of it is the fact that k6 spins up a separate JS runtime for ea…

There's a very interesting and long 6-year old discussion in the comments of the YouTube video you posted. In it, Marcinmd1 makes a lot of very good points, against the premise of …

> He writes utter shit, sub-mediocre literature. I'm someone who has read that story, at least the public parts of it, and I object slightly to your quality assessment... ;) I don'…
