LoadStrike examples

Start with the quick start for the shortest path to a working scenario.

Then open the protocol, browser, reporting, or cluster guide that matches your workload.

Who this is for

Engineers and buyers who know the workload shape and want the right example quickly.

Why endpoint-only testing breaks down here

Examples are hard to find when they are split by API surface instead of workload need.

How LoadStrike fits

This hub groups quick starts, browser runtimes, streams, clusters, and reporting sinks.

Quick start

Build one request-step scenario and run it.

Installation

Pick the right package and runtime first.

Sample reference repository

Review the public sample-reference repository linked from the site footer and docs.

Playwright browser docs

Model browser journeys inside the same scenario contract.

Selenium browser docs

Run Selenium-based browser workflows under the same reporting surface.

Kafka endpoint docs

Define Kafka producer and consumer endpoints with tracking fields.

Realtime reporting docs

Connect reports to Datadog, Loki, OTEL, Splunk, InfluxDB, or TimescaleDB.

Datadog starter assets

Open the Datadog sink page and its downloadable JSON template.

Grafana and Loki starter assets

Open the Grafana Loki page with dashboards, datasources, and OTLP starter files.

OTEL Collector starter assets

Open the OTEL sink page and collector starter configuration.

Does this page include only published examples?

Yes. Links point to published docs, downloads, or sample references.

Where should I start for browser journeys?

Start with the Playwright or Selenium pages, then open browser load testing.

Where should I start for reporting exports?

Open realtime reporting docs, then choose the sink page you need.

Quick Start

Build one basic request-step scenario around GET /orders/{id}, run it, and confirm the report before moving into correlation-specific features.

Playwright UI Load Guide

Use this guide when Playwright browser journeys should run inside the same LoadStrike scenario and reporting model.

Report Overview

This page explains how to read a LoadStrike report. Use it when you want to know what each section means and where to look first.

LoadStrike vs k6

Compare LoadStrike and k6 across code ergonomics, protocol scope, downstream correlation, reporting depth, browser workflows, and distributed self-hosted execution.

LoadStrike vs Apache JMeter

Compare LoadStrike and Apache JMeter across scenario design, protocol coverage, downstream correlation, browser workflows, reporting, and self-hosted operations.

LoadStrike and Datadog
