Good to know
GOOD TO KNOW

This training course includes numerous exercises (60% practical) to enhance learning. Each session will take place even if only one person is registered (except in cases of force majeure). A preliminary interview is held between the participant and/or a company representative in order to fully assess the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.).
Assessment : during the training course, the trainer assesses the participants’ progress through multiple-choice questions, role-playing exercises and practical work. Participants receive a certificate of completion at the end of the training course.

This training course is part of our Development Training Courses. Explore our other development trainings to design modern, performant and maintainable applications.

Objectives of the training: Load Testing Training Course – Simulate Real User Behaviour to Assess the Limits of Your Applications
objectives of this Load Testing Training Course

By the end, each participant will be able to :

  • Understand the differences between load testing, stress testing, endurance testing, and scalability testing.
  • Know how to choose the right testing tools for your needs (JMeter, K6, Gatling, Artillery, etc.).
  • Build realistic scenarios that represent user usage.
  • Run tests at different intensities and durations.
  • Analyse the results (latency, errors, saturation, throughput, etc.).
  • Formulate technical recommendations for optimisation.
Prerequisites of the training: Load Testing Training Course – Simulate Real User Behaviour to Assess the Limits of Your Applications
Prerequisites
  • Basic knowledge of HTTP, APIs or web development
  • Proficiency in using files, environment variables and command lines
  • Previous experience in functional testing is a plus
  • Because each participant has a unique background and expectations, a preliminary interview with our expert allows us to precisely identify their objectives, level and professional challenges.
    This enables us to tailor the training content to ensure relevant and personalised learning.
Target audience of the training: Load Testing Training Course – Simulate Real User Behaviour to Assess the Limits of Your Applications
Target Audience

Suitable for QA profiles, developers, DevOps, technical project managers, or any team responsible for user experience under constraints.

Download the programme (PDF)

Fundamentals of load testing
  • Types of tests : load, stress, endurance, scalability. Why and when to use them.
Definition of a representative user scenario
  • Target throughput, frequency of actions, behaviour during peak loads. Set realistic objectives.
Market tools – overview and selection
  • Comparison of JMeter, K6, Gatling, and Artillery. Choose according to your needs (web, API, CLI, CI/CD).
Test design and execution
  • Basic script, user simulation, ramp-up, random variations, assertions.
Metrics Interpretation
  • Interpretation of metrics (latency, error rate, 95th percentile, memory/CPU saturation, server logs).
Optimisation Strategies
  • Concrete strategies : caching, CDN, session management, database, parallelisation.
Continuous integration and supervision
  • Run tests via CI (GitLab, Jenkins), automatic alerting, integration into the quality loop.
The advantages of this training course
  • Is tool-agnostic : you learn how to test, not how to depend on a tool.
  • Goes beyond simulation: it trains you in analysis and optimisation strategy.
  • Is part of a DevOps/continuous quality approach.
  • Offers concrete examples taken from real-life situations.
FAQ
What is load testing?

Load testing measures how a system behaves under expected user load — response times, throughput, and error rates as concurrent users grow. It’s distinct from stress testing (pushing beyond limits to find breaking points) and soak testing (sustained load over time). Load testing happens before production rollouts and major feature launches. MFE-IT trains testing teams and developers on building meaningful load tests with modern tooling.

What are the best load testing tools?

The most-used load testing tools in 2027 are JMeter (open-source, GUI + headless), k6 (developer-friendly JavaScript), Gatling (Scala/Java DSL), Locust (Python), Artillery (Node.js), and commercial options like LoadRunner and BlazeMeter. The choice depends on team skills, protocol coverage, and CI/CD integration. The MFE-IT Load Testing training covers tool selection and migration patterns between them.

How many users should I simulate?

Simulated load should reflect realistic peak production traffic — typically derived from analytics (peak concurrent users observed) plus a safety multiplier (1.5x to 3x). Pure max-throughput numbers are misleading without realistic think times, session patterns, and data variation. Through MFE-IT’s hands-on approach, learners derive load profiles from production data and translate them into accurate test scenarios.

What is the difference between load testing and performance testing?

Performance testing is the umbrella discipline measuring how a system performs — response time, throughput, resource usage. Load testing is one specific type within performance testing, focused on behavior under expected concurrent load. Other types include stress, soak, spike, scalability, and endurance testing. Our MFE-IT training course on Load Testing places each type in context and explains when to use which.
