Perplexity

Claude Code manages Gatling via CLI

Pipe your performance results directly into your shell. Claude Code uses `start_simulation` to kick off tests from your terminal. It captures the run ID immediately. You can track the progress using `get_run` to ensure your deployment gates pass.

Automate Gatling pool verification

Use Claude Code to check your infrastructure before pushing code. It calls `list_pools` to verify availability. This prevents failed tests caused by offline generators. The agent ensures the environment is ready for the requested load.

Query Gatling simulation data

Retrieve exact metrics using `get_simulation` and `list_runs`. Claude Code formats this data for your build logs. It makes performance regression testing part of your standard terminal workflow. You get the data you need without leaving the command line.
