Dependancy and plugin followin this link documentation and installation.

Running Tests Using Gatling Maven Plugin

mvn test -Pperf-test

The plugin is set up to execute a simulation class, which can be selected interactively via the console.

mvn gatling:test

Alternatively, if you want to run a specific simulation class, you can specify it using the gatling.simulationClass parameter.

mvn gatling:test -Dgatling.simulationClass=simulations.MySimulation

Remember to replace simulations.MySimulation with the fully qualified name of your simulation class.

The Test Results

Test results are automatically generated upon test execution. Documentation and examples of the reports are available here.

Logger Configuration:

Loggers are used to control logging behavior for specific parts of the application. Logback supports different log levels, including TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, and OFF. The INFO level indicates that only informational messages and higher will be logged for this logger.
