KodeLoad Overview

KodeLoad is a geo-distributed, multi-tenant load testing platform designed to evaluate performance, detect bottlenecks, and ensure resilience under high traffic. Built for DevOps teams, it offers a powerful UI-driven experience backed by K6 and integrates seamlessly with modern cloud infrastructure.

KodeLoad provides test creation, orchestration, execution, and analysis — all within a secure, tenant-isolated environment.

What is KodeLoad?

KodeLoad enables developers and DevOps engineers to simulate HTTP load across various scenarios and geographic locations using a clean UI and test plan system. Tests can be configured instantly or defined in reusable templates, executed across multiple proxy providers, and deeply analyzed with request-level granularity.

What Problems Does KodeLoad Solve?

  • Confidently validate your infrastructure under heavy load
  • Benchmark microservices and APIs
  • Prevent regressions by replaying historical test scenarios
  • Identify latency spikes and bottlenecks
  • Test geographic impact on response times

Example Use Cases

  • Load test your homepage or API before a major release
  • Run spike or stress tests to validate autoscaling
  • Benchmark different infrastructure configurations
  • Replay previous tests for regression performance checks
  • View request-level logs to debug errors under pressure

Executor Types

constant-vus

Fixed number of virtual users for a set duration.

{
"executor": "constant-vus",
"vus": 10,
"duration": "30s"
}

ramping-vus

Gradually increase/decrease users using custom stages.

{
"executor": "ramping-vus",
"stages": [
{ "duration": "10s", "target": 10 },
{ "duration": "20s", "target": 20 },
{ "duration": "30s", "target": 30 }
]
}

per-vu-iterations

Each VU performs a fixed number of iterations.

{
"executor": "per-vu-iterations",
"vus": 5,
"iterations": 100
}

constant-arrival-rate

Fixed number of requests per time unit regardless of user count.

{
"executor": "constant-arrival-rate",
"arrivalRate": 50,
"timeUnit": "1s",
"duration": "1m"
}
