k6 - A Modern Open-Source Load Testing Tool
k6 is an open-source, developer-centric load testing tool designed for testing the performance and reliability of APIs, microservices, and websites. It makes performance testing a core part of the engineering workflow.
Project Introduction
Summary
k6 is a modern open-source load testing tool built with Go and JavaScript, focused on improving developer productivity and confidence in system performance.
Problem Solved
Traditional load testing tools are often complex, require specialized knowledge, and are difficult to integrate into modern development workflows. k6 addresses this by providing a developer-friendly, scriptable, and automation-ready solution.
Core Features
JavaScript Scripting
Write load tests using JavaScript, leveraging familiar syntax and environments.
High Performance
Built in Go, k6 is performant and efficient, capable of generating significant load with minimal resources.
Automation & Integration
Designed with CI/CD pipelines in mind, facilitating automated performance regression testing.
Protocol Support
Supports testing a wide range of protocols including HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, gRPC, and more.
