Artillery Operator

An operator to create and run distributed Artillery load tests from a Kubernetes cluster, at scale.

• It implements the Operator pattern.
• Created Load tests are first class Kubernetes citizens based on Custom Resources.
• Load tests run existing Artillery test scripts.

You can interact with created and running load tests via kubectl. And, monitor them with K8s UI tools too.

SREs, use the Operator to set up a self-service load testing framework on any K8s cluster.

Developers, create and apply CRs manifests to run distributed load tests from K8s at scale.
