Adds a build step to run a performance load test with Nouvola DiveCloud.
Nouvola Plugin
Cloud-based, scalable load testing and performance testing for your web, mobile and API, using the power of Nouvola.
Nouvola is the performance testing and analytics solution created by developers, for developers. Enjoy script-free performance testing, real-world ready scenarios and in-depth performance analytics across any load, any device, any geo.
Installation
First, sign up for a free account at Nouvola DiveCloud and obtain:
- A **Nouvola API key **(located in Account -> API & Keys).
- Create a new test plan and copy the **test plan ID. **
Optional steps:
- You can delay the polling for test results by using Wait Time. For example if your test lasts 10 minutes, you can set Wait Time to 10.
- If you want to be notified when your test completes using the Nouvola DiveCloud Webhook service, enter the URL of your Jenkins server (e.g.: http://jenkinsserver.yourcompany.com:12345), and the test will send a message when the execution is completed.
Note: the URL needs to be accessible by external sources. Make sure the specified port is open. If no port is specified in the URL, the listening port will default to 9999.
- You can set a timeout value so that your step will continue even if the webhook is never called.
You can then enter this information as a build step, which will run a test from the DiveCloud platform during your build. If you setup multiple build steps with Nouvola tests, they may run either at the same time or one after another.
