Quality Assurance Engineer Information Technology and Services Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 4/25/2023 More Options - "Intuitive with Strong Community Support, but Documentation Needs Improvement" 5/5 What do you like best about Gatling? I use Gatling for testing in both my previous and current company, and I really like their support. The switch from using Scala to TypeScript for writing tests has been a positive experience for me. The DSL (domain-specific language) that Gatling has is very intuitive, making it easy to use. I appreciate that it's easy to use, especially compared to tools like JMeter, and I like that you have something more tangible in the code form. The fact that developers can easily jump in and manage changes since it's code-based is great. I find the syntax clear, and the reporting feature is very user-friendly, providing a history of load tests that is quite helpful. The support for languages and clear syntax makes writing tests easier, even for people who might have never coded before. I also find the reporting crucial for quickly getting the information I need and spotting bottlenecks or slow requests at a glance. The feature that allows comparisons between different runs is something I appreciate very much. Additionally, the community support is great. I also recommended Gatling at my current company because I liked it. Setup is now easier thanks to moving from Scala to Java and TypeScript support, which I think helps in facilitating the setup. There's also a recording tool that can get you started quickly. I really like Gatling, think it's a great tool, and appreciate the great support from the community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Gatling? I think maybe their documentation could be a bit more. It is good, but I think it could be improved. Sometimes, you get confusing information that might not be suitable for your case. I think that could be improved. Before, in my previous company, when I used their reporting, I had some bugs in terms of a layout break. If I have a long endpoint written, then the layout would break and basically make the report not useful to me. So I have to make workarounds there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Gatling solving and how is that benefiting you? Gatling is easier to use than tools like JMeter with its clear code form. It supports versioning and lets developers control changes. Its reporting is user-friendly, providing fast insights and helping spot bottlenecks quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
