Probate Gatling Performance Tests

Gatling performance tests for the Probate citizen application

Initial setup:

• After cloning, run git submodule update --init --recursive to populate the common-performance submodule code
• Run ./gradlew build to rebuild with the submodule code

To keep the code up to date with the latest common-performance code:

• git submodule update --recursive --remote
• ./gradlew build

For further details on the submodule, refere to https://github.com/hmcts/common-performance/

To run locally:

• Run az login using Azure CLI, as authentication is required to retrieve secrets from the Key Vault
• Performance test against the perftest environment: ./gradlew gatlingRun

Flags:

• Debug (single-user mode): -Ddebug=on e.g. ./gradlew gatlingRun -Ddebug=on
• Run against AAT: Denv=aat e.g. ./gradlew gatlingRun -Denv=aat

📢 Notes:

• Ensure JAVA_HOME for the repo's directory is set to a Java 21 installation
• Run ./gradlew -v to confirm the version of Java being used by Gradle
• The code must be compiled and executed against the same version of Java
• Ensure your IDE is configured to use appropriate software versions (as specified in the build.gradle)
