How WebBencher Works
API Testing
Simulate Real-World Demand
WebBencher simulates load to your API endpoints under varying conditions to identify problems before they occur in production. WebBencher can use an existing API specification so that you can get to work on what matters.
WebBencher provides full customization of the benchmarking process, allowing the user to configure load conditions such as target throughput, maximum concurrency, and threading.

- Measure latency and throughput
- Vary load conditions
- Configure TCP Settings
- Set maximum requests or duration.
API Endpoints
Configurable API Endpoints
WebBencher doesn't just query your API endpoints -- it can process returned JSON as well. The fully customizable endpoint configuration provides you with the power to build complex API queries -- and use the returned JSON to modify the next queries.
- Use global and local variables within a request
- Define variables from the JSON output of a previous request
- Customize HTTP Headers, endpoints, and body text.
- Define HTTP method (GET, POST, HEAD, DELETE)
Data Processing
Gain Insights into Performance Through Data
WebBencher provides the data you need to know to optimize efficiently, and identify potential errors before entering production.
- See latencies for each endpoint separately.
- View throughput, latency, and WIP as a function of time.
- Export data to spreadsheet (XLSX) format.
Detailed Information
Deep-Dive into Responses
WebBencher allows you to investigate individual requests made to the server to help you understand the behavior of your server. HTTP responses are losslessly compressed in-memory during benchmarking for large-scale benchmarks.
- See latency, time-to-first-byte (TTFB), transfer size (bytes), and HTTP status code.
- See full HTTP body returned.
- See HTTP request and response headers.
- Export table to spreadsheet (XLSX) format.
