# Load Testing with Production Traffic Replay

## Load test using real performance data

*   Replay real Traffic Context at scale
    
*   Understand true breakpoints, not synthetic guesses
    
*   Track latency and throughput against budgets

### More accurate load tests

Verify that your load tests can handle your actual, expected traffic and any increases in traffic, so you aren't misled by false confidence.

### No more manual scripting

Scripting is slow and unrealistic. Capture Traffic Context and multiply it—even replay it in lower environments. Auto-generate load tests from real production data.

### Purpose-built for Kubernetes

All traffic is invoked natively in your Kubernetes cluster so you can factor out external variables while testing.

## Customer Success Story

### Cimpress reduces Black Friday load testing time by 80% with Speedscale

> "Speedscale gave us clear insight on the upper load limit of our software. Whereas with K6, it was more binary, like a PASS/FAIL grade. Speedscale took it one step further to help us understand, based on transactions per second, exactly where our breakpoints were. We felt more confident in where our service could be."
