Distributed load testing with k6
In this presentation we'll introduce you to k6, an open source load testing tool, developed by Grafana Labs. k6 is very easy to run, powerful and very flexible thanks to the testing scenarios you can write in Javascript.

You'll learn how to define testing scenarios, set checks for expected behavior and define thresholds. We will also look at visualizing metrics using a variety of tools such as Prometheus, InfluxDB and Grafana.
k6 can scale beyond a single node and we'll show you how to run distributed tests while controlling the execution remotely via the CLI and API.
