What's different about Artillery?

Distributed load testing

Artillery comes with serverless distributed load testing built-in. Run production-scale multi-region load tests with zero infra to manage. Your own AWS or Azure account, no DevOps knowledge needed.

Test any stack

Test HTTP APIs, WebSocket and Socket.IO services, and complex web apps with real headless browsers (via Playwright).

Best practices baked in

Detailed performance metric reports, CI/CD integrations, monitoring & observability integrations - all out of the box.

Cost-efficient

All tests run from your own AWS or Azure account. This is orders of magnitude more cost-efficient than managed SaaS load testing tools.
