NeoLoad

Supported OS Linux Windows Mac OS

Overview

Tricentis NeoLoad simplifies and scales performance testing for APIs and microservices, as well as end-to-end application testing through protocol and browser-based capabilities.

With the NeoLoad integration, you can track NeoLoad test performance metrics to:

  • Correlate application performance with load testing metrics in NeoLoad.
  • Analyze and visualize NeoLoad metrics in Datadog like throughput, errors, and performance using the out-of-the-box dashboard or Metrics Explorer.

Setup

Configuration

For detailed instructions on NeoLoad configuration, follow the NeoLoad documentation. Since NeoLoad version 9.1, you can choose which metrics to send in the Push Counters configuration of the Datadog Connector in NeoLoad.

Install the NeoLoad integration in Datadog to add the default NeoLoad dashboard to your dashboard list.
