I'm super excited to share the open source project I've been working on for the past year because it is finally ready for general use (I hope!).
The project is called Orderly Ape, it's an open source (MIT) distributed, scalable load testing platform that uses k6, grafana, influxdb and kubernetes. It lets you run k6 load tests on your infrastructure and gives you complete control/ownership of the execution and data.
I was motivated to create Orderly Ape because I work a lot with hosting companies and testing them (I run WPHostingBenchmarks.com). It wasn't financially viable to run many large scale tests to benchmark all these companies, so I built Orderly Ape. It allows me to run tests at a fraction of the cost now, no VUser pricing, just the hardware needed to run the tests - scaled/spun up when I need it.
I finally finished documenting (and creating video tutorials) on how to setup/install/run everything. So now people can hopefully actually give it a try.
I would appreciate any feedback/bugs/suggestions/pull requests :)
