# K6 Hybrid Performance Testing of WooCommerce

## Overview

This repo contains an example [hybrid](https://grafana.com/docs/k6/latest/using-k6-browser/recommended-practices/hybrid-approach-to-performance/) performance load test simulating a full checkout flow against a WooCommerce installation hosted on WPE: https://liamseprod.wpenginepowered.com/. 

The code in this repo combines a browser and HTTP protocol level test in a single script. The script runs a protocol level load test and also spins up a Chromium based browser to check the frontend for any unexpected usability issues throughout the checkout flow while the system is under load. 

---

### Execution Steps

- To execute the test using your local machines resources run:

```

k6 run hybrid-test.js

``` 

- K6 browser tests run in a headless browser by default. To disable this and to see the Chrome browser open add the complete the steps defined in the `checkFrontend()` function found in `hybrid-test.js` add the  `K6_BROWSER_HEADLESS=false` flag:

```

K6_BROWSER_HEADLESS=false k6 run hybrid-test.js

```

- To execute the test using K6 Cloud run:

```

k6 cloud run hybrid-test.js

```
