Gatling
By Gatling Corp. Category: Performance testing with AI. Homepage
Gatling's documentation describes Gatling as a load testing tool whose tests are simulations written as code in Java, Scala, Kotlin, JavaScript or TypeScript. An AI Assistant for VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf and Antigravity generates ready-to-run simulations, and the AI extensions also convert JMeter and LoadRunner scripts. The open-source Community Edition runs locally, while Gatling Enterprise runs on managed cloud load generators or private locations. Enterprise adds AI run summaries and comparisons. CI integrations cover GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, TeamCity and Bamboo. A Gatling MCP Server for Enterprise and a Claude Code plugin connect Gatling to AI agents.
