Most load tests measure performance in a vacuum. They run inside pristine cloud networks, milliseconds away from the servers they’re testing. The numbers look great, until users connect from real devices, on real networks, and everything slows down. Latency is the gap...
For years, load testing meant hammering APIs. Tools like JMeter sent thousands of lightweight HTTP requests to measure throughput and latency. And it worked—until applications stopped being simple request/response systems. Modern web apps are now dynamic frontends...
