Why take this course?

UPDATE - AUGUST 2022 -COURSE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY RE-RECORDED FROM SCRATCH FOR THE LATEST VERSION OF GATLING - V3.8

In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of using the Gatling stress testing tool - an extremely powerful, open-source performance testing tool in heavy demand in the software industry today. Write many Gatling scripts from scratch against a target application included with this course, all with guidance.

Why Gatling?:

  • Extremely powerful and flexible performance testing solution

  • An open-source tool, so no cost to use it

  • Performance testers with Gatling experience are in high demand - yet few Engineers know this tool

Why this course?:

  • Learn all aspects of Gatling including:

    • Gatling Installation & Configuration, both standalone and in an IDE

    • Using the Recorder to record your user journey

    • Writing Gatling load test scripts,

    • Analyzing test results

  • See how to write many scripts from scratch to become familiar with the process, each script teaches a new concept

  • Run tests from the command line, using popular build tools like Maven and Gradle

  • Learn how to run Gatling tests in a CI environment with Jenkins and Travis CI

  • Although Gatling is pure Scala code, I will show you why the excellent Gatling DSL means that no knowledge of Scala is required to succeed with Gatling

  • Resources for learning Gatling are scarce. It can be overwhelming and intimidating trying to learn this tool on your own from scratch. This course is designed to address that

What are the benefits of taking this course?:

  • Have fun whilst learning a valuable skill & tool

  • Command a higher salary

  • Improve your skills and offering as a developer and tester

This course is for any Developer or Quality Engineer that wants to learn how to use Gatling for adding performance and stress tests to their test suite.

No prior knowledge of performance testing or software development is required, as I will be walking you through the entire process. However, any prior knowledge or experience that you do have in these domains  will be of benefit and will naturally aid your learning.

If you want to add an awesome, fully open source performance testing tool that is in high demand across a wide range of software development roles to your skillset, this is the course for you.

That is great introduction to Gatling load testing. IMHO there is slight outdated section 11, gatling with CI tools.

It is very basic and common course , I didn’t find any extra examples of building complex performance test scenarios. In course author did not add enough detailed information about result analysis and application performance monitoring . I will really appreciate if author add examples of integrating Gatling tests with some tools like grafana for both test and application performance analysis

Course content was largely very good, informative and well structured and delivered. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is I felt that there was too much repetition, where we watched the instructor type the same skeleton code over and over in many of the lectures which felt very unnecessary.

It is informative course and it has covered performance test using gatling very good. The only thing is the api that has been used in the course is not available anymore. Thank you!

A very basic course, just touches upon bare minimum concepts to get started. A lot of things like parallel execution, advanced load model designing etc are not covered. But good for getting a head start on Gatling, and then student can learn advanced topics as per their needs.

Course where the material was up-to-date and worked as expected. Examples were clear, easy to follow, and also addressed CI as a starter for 10 - perfect intro. It would have been great if it included a quick "How to split into multiple files and run overall" - if that makes sense. i.e. videogamedb/commandline/* feeders/* etc, which while obviously meaningless in this precise context, would be a quick how to achieve for testing whereby you split your testing logically for various services Also, great pricing for the content. So thanks :)

This Gatling course is good. The author added examples for almost all areas of Gatling. Just one thing I found missing is the Gatling setup with the Maven project otherwise the course is good.
