Hello,

I’ve already replied to the same question: RDBMS load testing is not supported at the moment.

Thank you. But the gatling forum says, We can test the performance of db. Thats why i have a doubt on this.

I don’t know where you found such a statement, but it’s wrong. We worked at some time on a proof of concept but it never made it into Gatling.

Thank you Stephane…

How far away is that, and is there something I can do to help? We have an internal desire to be able to load test SQL queries.

Far. Original poc was targeting Gatling 1 and needed some major changes so we dropped it. JDBC is not a natural fit for Gatling as it’s a blocking protocol, so there’s quite some prior analysis work required.
There’s not much demand for JDBC/SQL, so it’s very low priority for us. If anyone’s has a pressing need for this, the best way to make it happen is to sponsor its development.

Cheers,

Stéphane

Can you give a quote on what it would cost to sponsor this particular feature?
