Introduction
In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a new project as load tests in Ready API. We will cover different aspects of Ready API, Load test, API definition, and a lot of new things.
Let’s start with how to use the new Load Test wizard.
From API Definition
An API definition file can be used to quickly create a load test. Files such as WSDL, OpenAPI, Swagger, and WADL can be used:
Click Load Test on the New Test tile on the Dashboard
Select the API Definition option in the New Load Test dialogue and click Start.
Enter the path to the file. If the API definition file is already on your computer, click Browse to locate it or enter its path. Enter the full URL if it is on the website. Next, click.
Choose a load template to use. If you're unsure, choose a baseline template and then click Configure Load Test.
Now just configure the load test.
In the Load Test Name field, enter the name of the load test.
Set the number of virtual users that will be simulated in the test. The service will receive a request from each virtual user. See Load Type for more information on how Ready API simulates virtual users.
Set up load test assertions. If you are unsure, use the suggested values or check the Skip assertions for now checkbox to configure assertions later.
Finally, click Finish.
When you create a load test, Ready API will offer you the option of running it or configuring it to run on multiple machines. To continue working with the created load test, select one of the options.
From URL
From a service URL, you can quickly create a load test:
Choose File > New > Load Test from the menu.
Or
Click Load Test on the New Test tile on the Dashboard
Select the URL option in the New Load Test dialogue and click Start.
Enter the URL for your requests here. Select the method of the created request from the drop-down list on the left. Next, click.
If more URLs are required, click Add URL.
Choose the load template that will be used in your load test. If you're unsure, choose a baseline template and then click Configure Load Test.
Now just configure the load test.
In the Load Test Name field, enter the name of the load test.
Set the number of virtual users that will be simulated in the test. The service will receive a request from each virtual user. See Load Type for more information on how ReadyAPI simulates virtual users.
Set up load test assertions. If you are unsure, use the suggested values or check the Skip assertions for now checkbox to configure assertions later.
Finally, click Finish.
When you create a load test, Ready API will offer you the option of running it or configuring it to run on multiple machines. To continue working with the created load test, select one of the options.
💥Ready API will create a new functional test for the URL, followed by a new load test.
From Existing Functional Test
It is not needed to add a new API and create a test case if you already have a functional test case. You can instead use an already configured test:
Navigate to File > New Load Test.
or
Click Load Test on the New Test tile on the Dashboard
Select Test Case and click Start in the New Load Test dialogue.
Choose the test case that will serve as the foundation for your load test.
Choose the load template that will be used. If you're unsure, choose a baseline template and then click Configure Load Test.
Now just configure the load test
In the Load Test Name field, enter the name of the load test.
Set the number of virtual users that will be simulated in the test. The service will receive a request from each virtual user. See Load Type for more information on how Ready API simulates virtual users.
Set up load test assertions. If you are unsure, use the suggested values or check the Skip assertions for now checkbox to configure assertions later.
Finally, click Finish.
When you create a load test, Ready API will offer you the option of running it or configuring it to run on multiple machines. To continue working with the created load test, select one of the options.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Ready API tool?
ReadyAPI is a no-code API testing platform that is designed to simplify your testing workflows. End-to-end tests can be automated and scaled across multiple API types.
Why do we use ReadyAPI?
ReadyAPI enables teams to create, manage, and execute automated functional, security, and performance tests in a single centralized interface, thereby speeding up API quality for Agile and DevOps software teams.
What is the difference between SoapUI and ReadyAPI?
SmartBear's SoapUI is an open-source tool for automated web service testing. While Ready API is an API readiness platform that includes a test module for the next generation of SoapUI.
Is there a free version of ReadyAPI?
Ready API is a no-code API testing platform that is designed to simplify your testing workflows. You can download your free trial now to gain complete access to all testing features.
