How to Conduct an HTTP/2 Test on APIs

Oct 22, 2024 By Taurai Mutimutema In Speedscale
Slowly but surely, HTTP/2 has become the preferred protocol for transferring data files between clients and servers. In contrast, HTTP/1, which once stood as the sole method for loading web applications, is now falling short, particularly in terms of user experience. Since 2015, HTTP/2 APIs have taken the lead with lightning-fast server responses.

Kubernetes Load Testing: How JMeter and Speedscale Compare

Oct 17, 2024 By Kasper Siig In Speedscale
At some point, your development team may be considering implementing load testing (also known as stress testing) as part of your software testing process. Load testing validates that your web app is able to withstand a large number of simultaneous users, decreasing the chance that any traffic spikes will bring down your services once deployed. These stress tests can be highly granular, giving you the opportunity to test run virtually unlimited strategies before they are set into the wild.

Simplifying AWS Testing: A Guide to AWS SDK Mock

Oct 17, 2024 By Shaun Duncan In Speedscale
Testing AWS services is an essential step in creating robust cloud applications. However, directly interacting with AWS during testing can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. The AWS SDK Mock is a JavaScript library designed to simplify this process by allowing developers to mock AWS SDK methods, making it easier to simulate AWS service interactions in a controlled environment. Primarily used with AWS SDK v2, AWS SDK Mock integrates with Sinon.js to mock AWS services like S3, SNS, and DynamoDB.
