Simulate the API and database responses you need, modeled after real transactions, in minutes. Build and test your apps faster and stop getting blocked by unreliable shared environments.
Making developer's lives easier at:
Record just a few backend calls, then
autogenerate realistic mocks and data
Traffic replay for everyone
Adopt across engineering teams, most critical services first.
Step 01
Capture Data
- Agree to scope and system for lighthouse project.
- Capture and validate inbound, outbound, data encryption, scalability, etc.
Step 02
Data analysis and model training
- Create snapshots to test scenarios. What do we expect to happen and why?
- Modify and transform snapshots to form snapshots to form better testing shape.
Step 03
Traffic replay and mock backends
- Execute snapshots for load / functional / chaos scenarios.
- Analyze results and refine as necessary.
Step 04
Adoption and scaling

IHG Hotels & Resorts selects Speedscale as their
“one-stop-shop” for test environments and data
IHG Hotels & Resorts is a multinational hospitality company that manages over 6,000 hotels in 100 countries. Their diverse portfolio of properties includes leading brands like Holiday Inn, Kimpton, Crowne Plaza, Intercontinental Hotels, and more.
Challenge
IHG Hotels & Resorts launched a leadership initiative to enhance developer experience and productivity during their migration to Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). The focus was on scaling environments for load and functional testing to improve deployment speed and quality by removing developer roadblocks.
The team faced challenges with time-intensive setups using tools like Akamai CloudTest, ReadyAPI, and WireMock, along with large staging environments. These issues worsened as the number of test cases increased.
Solution
DK discovered Speedscale through a colleague’s recommendation, drawn by its “one-stop-shop” approach, consolidating load testing and API mocking into one tool. Its automated, traffic-driven testing eliminated manual processes, standardized workflows, and improved consistency.
“The Speedscale founders and core engineers all have a strong engineering background. They have the scar tissue from their past DevOps experiences, and it shows in how battle-tested and well-thought-out the Speedscale product is for developers.”
–Dinakar (DK) Machikalapudi, Head of Enterprise Services, Platforms, Support and DevSecOps
