BlazeMeter vs. mabl

It is good for measurements of performance testing. It can be used to run API testing. I can not use this for monitoring but it can be used as a complement for monitoring tools (like Catchpoint or New Relic). It can help to produce load on your site and monitor.

We haven't found a scenario yet where it hasn't been appropriate. We did have one function on our application that mabl couldn't do, but they solved it and got back to us very quickly. Our application is web-based and mabl is able to handle this very easily. We use the command line runner a lot. Being able to easily and quickly change from a cloud based run to a local run has been fantastic. Setting up flows and environments is a wonderful feature

• Blazemeter has very intuitive and uncluttered UI. It is very easy for a beginner to figure out and get started.
• Blazemeter allows several methods of creating performance tests - using several popular open source applications. Therefore most often there is no need to learn to use a new tool or language.

• mabl trainer - record and play back test cases
• Organization - labels and flows make this easy
• Customer support!

• It required good knowledge to analyze BlazeMeter report.

• Asserts could be easier to add, but they aren't terribly hard

BlazeMeter scores well against Apache JMeter in one Key point , the load generation from different cloud based systems. This helps to measure the capacity of the the application in a transparent way and not bogged down by the capacity of the system from where the test is executed (in this case Apache JMeter)

We ultimately selected mabl cause it most met our needs and our budget. We needed a low code UI automation test tool. We also have a suite of existing testing tools and other tools that it needed to be able to integrate with. Price was the only thing that ruled out some of the above tools, we are a small start up, and don't have a huge budget. Some tools listed didn't have the same functionality or ease of use with the record and playback. mabl works on our machines and integrates with our existing tools

• BlazeMerter helped performance tests run on their cloud, thereby diminishing our on-prem setup costs tremendously.
• BlazeMeter pings our application from several geographical locations, thereby simulating real life users.
• BlazeMeter offers dedicated IPs so that firewall issues can be bypassed.

Incentivized

• We are able to more quickly automate UI tests
