Accelerating Performance Test Design with GitHub Copilot

In today’s software development environment, performance test design often faces challenges related to the time and effort required to create, optimize, and manage testing scripts. Manually writing and refining scripts for tools like LoadRunner and K6 can be both time-consuming and prone to errors. This presentation introduces GitHub Copilot as a solution, an AI-powered coding assistant that automates script generation and optimization. With the ability to generate API scripts at the click of a button, Copilot significantly reduces scripting time while enhancing accuracy and efficiency. Attendees will see how Copilot's capabilities include real-time code suggestions, automated code review, custom function generation, error handling, and optimization of existing scripts. These enhancements streamline the performance testing process, offering tangible benefits such as faster script creation, improved consistency, and enhanced overall productivity.
