K6 Load Testing Template

Start building your load tests with webpack

docker-compose -p k6 up build promtail

For production build, set watch to false in webpack.config.js

Start Grafana, Loki and other logging tools

docker-compose -p logs -f docker-compose-log.yaml up

Start running your load tests

TEST=transaction-history SCENARIOS=ramp LOG_FILE=$(date +%F_%H-%M-%S) docker-compose -p k6 up --force-recreate --build k6

Here,

• TEST is the name of the test file without the extension
• SCENARIOS is the name of the scenario, mention multiple scenarios separated by comma
• LOG_FILE is the prefix of the log file

All of the containers run in host network mode, so you can access the services directly from your host machine.
