Reactive programming is a programming paradigm aimed at maintaining overall coherence by propagating changes from a reactive source (modification of a variable, user input, etc.) to elements dependent on this source.

This article follows our first blog post related to Kraken’s deployment on Kubernetes. It is a step by step guide explaining how to deploy the InfluxDb/Telegraf/Grafana stack used to generate load testing reports on Kraken.

Kraken is a load testing solution currently deployed on Docker. In order to use several injectors (Gatling) while running a load test, its next version might rely on Kubernetes. This blog post belongs to a series that describe how to use Minikube, declarative configuration files and the kubectl command-line tool to deploy Docker micro-services on Kubernetes. It focuses on the installation of an Angular 8 frontend application served by an NGinx Ingress controller.

OctoPerf’s Load Testing IDE (Kraken) is an application with two frontends - The Administration UI used to manage Docker containers and images, The Gatling UI to debug and execute load tests with Gatling. Both UI are based on Angular 8 and share many components, CSS and external library dependencies. This blog post is a guide for every developer that would like to create an Angular Workspace with several applications and libraries.

Introduction We are going to talk about data in this blog post, predominately test data required for performance testing. This is something that makes the life of a performance tester extremely difficult and awkward as because of the huge quantities required, in the right state, that match the criteria required for your test to run. We often have to approach the use of large quantities data for the purpose of performance testing in a number of ways.
