RedLine13 provides a hosted load-testing service with AWS-based execution and integrations for JMeter and other load tools. Its companion GitHub repository contains open-source project components.

About

RedLine13 is a cloud-based load testing platform that allows users to run scalable load tests in the cloud. Most users integrate it with their own AWS account to run load tests using various frameworks, including JMeter, Gatling, and custom tests written in PHP, NodeJS, or Python. The service is designed to manage cloud load agents on behalf of the user, abstracting away the underlying infrastructure management.

  • Support for multiple test types: JMeter, Gatling, Custom, Log Replay, and URL tests
  • Integration with AWS for scalable load agents
  • Unlimited test duration and number of tests (depending on subscription)
  • Team management and collaboration features
  • Test cloning and re-run capabilities
  • Advanced server management and automatic termination of load agents
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) support for Enterprise users

Pricing

RedLine13 offers a free tier as well as paid subscriptions. Basic subscription is $75/month or $500/year. Premium is $299/month or $2,500/year. Enterprise is $499/month or $5,000/year. Pricing is also subject to the cost of the cloud resources (e.g., AWS spot instances) used during testing.
