Thanks to this integration, you can perform UI load tests based on functional tests. For now it only works for keyword testing. Load testing only works for keyword tests created on Chrome and Edge browsers. Tests created on Firefox are not currently supported.

You can discover the capabilities of load testing with our 14-day free trial. Learn more here.
