Team-wide load testing from the editor

Share your performance testing tools across your entire engineering team. By adding this MCP Server to your shared `.vscode/mcp.json` file, every developer on your team can trigger LoadNinja scenarios using `run_scenario` directly from VS Code Copilot. Your team can quickly check the status of running tests using `list_test_runs` or pull details on active subscriptions with `get_account`. It keeps everyone on the same page regarding virtual user consumption and active test runs.

Analyze browser metrics in Copilot Chat

Stop jumping back and forth to a browser dashboard. Ask VS Code Copilot to fetch the results of your latest run using `get_test_run_stats`, and it will parse the raw browser metrics to show you response times and error rates directly in the chat panel. The integration allows you to query `get_test_run` to inspect specific execution details. Copilot can then help you write regression tests or adjust your application's resource limits based on real-world browser performance data.

Validate environments and configurations

Make sure your performance tests are running in the right locations and on the right browsers. VS Code Copilot can query `list_locations` and `list_browsers` to verify your test environments before you execute a scenario. By comparing your local configuration files with the remote scenario data fetched via `get_scenario` using the LoadNinja MCP Server, Copilot ensures your load tests target the correct staging or production endpoints without manual verification.
