Azure DevOps Plugin

Apica LoadTest Plugin for Azure DevOps (V 2.1.2)

Azure DevOps is an extension and rebranding of what was Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS). As an Azure pipeline, this Apica LoadTest task brings the Apica load testing platform into your CI build pipeline.

This task enables you to run a load test using your ALT account.

NOTE: this current plugin only supports single script tests but not Scenarios.

The plugin initiates and runs a load test in the console, after which the results are shown on a Test Result Details page.
