We’ve set up several initiatives aimed at testing and improving the performance of GitLab, which is why the Quality team built a new tool to test GitLab's performance. Performance testing is an involved process and distinct from other testing disciplines. The strategies and tooling in this space are specialized and require dedicated resources to achieve results.
This is a proud day for all of us here at LoadImpact! Today is the day we're unveiling the new k6 Cloud service. A completely rebuilt frontend to our cloud service including some much requested improvements. Today is also the day when we make public our plan to rebrand the company as "k6", the starting point for the transition away from the "LoadImpact" brand and loadimpact.com to the "k6" brand and k6.io.
At the end of the year, I like to look back at what new discoveries I've made and lessons I've learnt as a QA engineer. 2019 has proved to be a bonanza year, with some startling changes in direction for Test and with new technologies and methodologies making a break into the mainstream.
