Artillery
Full-stack performance & reliability testing
Artillery is a testing toolkit that combines load testing, Playwright-based end-to-end testing, and production monitoring in a single platform. It addresses the need to verify that applications and APIs remain performant and reliable under load, while also supporting functional testing and ongoing checks of key user journeys. The toolkit is incrementally adoptable and is designed to work alongside coding agents.
Load testing covers HTTP APIs, GraphQL services, and Socket.IO apps, with Playwright-native browser-based load testing that reuses existing Playwright tests. Distributed load testing runs on AWS or Azure serverless infrastructure, and OpenTelemetry integrations support CI/CD and monitoring workflows. E2E testing collects Playwright results in a central dashboard with traces, screenshots, and attachments, plus GitHub Actions integration for PR comments and reports linked to branches. Synthetic checks and monitoring reuse Playwright code for continuous browser-based or API checks, with alerts via email, Slack, or PagerDuty.
Artillery is aimed at teams running regular testing at scale, from hobby projects to larger organizations. It is packaged as a subscription covering both the CLI and cloud dashboard, with a free plan, Team and Business editions, and enterprise add-ons such as SSO, audit logs, and managed deployment to a customer-owned AWS account.
