LoadNinja

The LoadNinja Load Testing Plugin allows integrating LoadNinja tests in your Jenkins builds.

What is LoadNinja?

LoadNinja is a cloud-based load testing and performance testing platform for web applications. It helps developers, QA teams, and performance engineers check if their web servers sustain a massive load and if the servers are robust and scalable.
