Browser automation should be an important part of your performance testing strategy, especially with web applications. In this video, get to know our k6 browser module. This experimental module provides browser-level APIs that let you automate tests from a browser perspective and collect frontend performance metrics as part of your existing k6 scripts.

Grafana Cloud k6 is a feature available to all users of Grafana Cloud. It allows you to run load and performance tests right from the comfort of your Grafana Cloud instance, without needing to create a separate account on k6 Cloud. Grafana Cloud k6 helps you get started quickly with a GUI Test Builder or with test scripts written in JavaScript, and then visualize your test results in real-time, alongside your other Grafana dashboards that monitor your system infrastructure. With Grafana Cloud k6, you can get a holistic look at your system's performance-- on any environment.

Announcing the launch of Grafana Cloud k6! The k6 Cloud platform is finally available as a new offering within Grafana Cloud that empowers developers, operations and QA teams to prevent system failures and consistently deliver fast and reliable applications. The announcement comes directly from Raj Dutt, Grafana Labs CEO. Paul Balogh gives a tour through the new clouds in his weather segment, closing with the usual fun and bloopers.

With the release of Grafana Cloud k6, you can get observability and performance testing in the same platform. Senior Product Manager Mark Meier and Frontend Lead Simon Legander join Nicole van der Hoeven to talk about what Grafana Cloud k6 is, how you can use it, and demonstrate what it can do to improve your system's reliability.

Experimental modules in k6 were released in v0.40, and new modules for distributed tracing and browser testing have been added since.
