LoadView

LoadView is a fully managed, cloud-based load and performance testing platform that helps DevOps teams, QA professionals, and performance engineers ensure their websites, web applications, APIs, and streaming media can handle real-world traffic without slowing down or crashing.

What sets LoadView apart is that it runs tests in real browsers, not just simple HTTP requests.
