From Functional Tests to Performance Tests: Robustum, an Implementation Example
summary
Orange Load Testing presents Robustum, a GitLab template that bundles reusable K6 perflib scripts, CI pipeline configurations, and Grafana dashboards together with a perfbot farm of loadpad VMs for traffic injection. Teams fork the template to adapt API or GUI use cases, run local unit tests and then pipeline-driven load tests; the platform supports browser I/O tests up to about 1,000–1,200 virtual users (~2,400 req/s). A live demo of a 10-user run revealed two response-time spikes above 1s, which triggered a level‑2 investigation.
