spring-gatling

What problem does it solve?

Provides a repeatable, production-oriented framework to design and run Gatling Java DSL performance tests so teams can validate API performance, detect regressions, and gate deployments before release.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Scenario Library: Smoke, Load, Stress, and Soak simulations with reusable ChainBuilder scenarios for account and transaction flows.
• Data Feeders & Session Management: CSV and programmatic feeders with circular consumption and session variables to correlate requests.
• Gradle & CI Integration: io.gatling.gradle plugin configuration, gatlingRun task usage, and GitHub Actions steps to run smoke tests and archive HTML reports.
• Assertions & Reporting: Hard performance gates (p95/p99/max), per-request assertions, and HTML report analysis that can be correlated with Grafana/JVM metrics.
• Use Case: Run the SmokeTestSimulation as part of staging deploys to catch regressions and run Load/Stress simulations in an isolated perf environment for capacity planning.

Quick Start

Run the Gatling smoke simulation by invoking the Gradle gatlingRun task against your staging baseUrl and the simulations.SmokeTestSimulation class.
