13 | TCP | Yes | No |
14 | HTTP Recorder | Yes (Built in proxy recorder to generate the requests from the user navigation.) | Yes (Has a separate Web proxy recorder, which works the same way as the JMeter recorder. It generates a Scala simulation from the recorded user session.) |
15 | Distributed Testing (Distributed Testing is the ability to use several slaves computers as load generators to spread the load over multiple machines to be able to simulate more concurrent users.) | Yes | No |

21 | Archive Format Setup | Yes | Yes |
22 | Installer Format Setup | No | No |
23 | Command-line Executable Setup | Yes | Yes |
24 | GUI Executable Setup | Yes | No |
25 | Requires Java Setup | Yes | Yes |
26 | Target Audience | QA Engineers | Devops Engineers |
27 | Performance | One
Thread = One User Paradigm. The user waits for the server response when sending a request. Synchronous processing. |
Simulate
multiple virtual users with a single Thread. It allows fully asynchronous computing ASynchronous processing. |
28 | Test Execution | To
launch a test with JMeter, there are two methods: 1. Launch the GUI, then launch the test inside GUI, 2. Launch the test via command-line (recommended because using GUI listeners consumes a lot of memory.). |
To
launch a test with gatling, run the .sh script and select the simulation
(within user-files/simulations folder). During the test run, gatling displays statistics within the console. The results of the test can be viewed at the end of the test. Gatling generates a generic test report with response time, number of OK/KO transactions and detailed statistics for every request. The report is not customizable. |
29 | Command-line live metrics during test | Yes | Yes |
30 | HTML Report | Yes | Yes |
31 | Raw Results during test execution | Yes | Yes |
32 | UI Results of test | Yes | No |
33 | Graphite Support | Yes | Yes |
34 | Grafana + InfluxDB | Yes | Yes |
35 | Cloud load testing | Yes (Better cloud support than Gatling). | Yes (But not better that JMeter). |
Wow its a great blog.
