Artillery is an open-source load testing platform and CLI for stress-testing HTTP APIs, GraphQL, WebSocket, Socket.IO, gRPC, and browser apps with Playwright. It supports distributed, serverless test execution on AWS Lambda and Fargate, with 20+ CI/CD and observability integrations.
Use cases
- load test my HTTP API under heavy traffic
- run distributed stress tests on AWS Lambda without managing infrastructure
- load test with real headless browsers using Playwright
- stress test a WebSocket or Socket.IO application
- add performance testing to my CI/CD pipeline
- measure GraphQL API performance at scale
- run Playwright E2E tests at scale with sharding
When to choose
- you need production-grade, distributed load testing with zero infrastructure setup
- you want to reuse existing Playwright tests for browser-based load testing
- you need to test multiple protocols (HTTP, WebSocket, gRPC, Socket.IO) with one tool
- you want built-in CI/CD and observability integrations like OpenTelemetry and Datadog
When to avoid
- you need a simple GUI-only load testing tool without a CLI workflow
- you plan to run production workloads on Azure, which requires a commercial license for some modules
- you need a lightweight single-request benchmarking utility rather than full scenario modeling
