Web · /// Full-stack

One platform for web testing - load, API, DEM, uptime, all on the same timeline.

LoadGen runs the web stack as one engine - Playwright-based load on Core agents, visual API testing flows, SessionSight DEM, and uptime checks. Three vendors collapse into one timeline.

The Problem

The web is full-stack. Your testing tool isn’t.

Real-user experience on the web is the overlap of API, frontend, third-party, and infrastructure. Tools that test only one of those leave the rest as guesswork.

HTTP-only load tests miss what users actually feel.

A 200 OK doesn’t describe a SPA hydration stall, a third-party script regression, or a checkout drop-off. Synthetic green covers real red.

API tests, load tests, and DEM live in three vendors.

Three contracts, three dashboards, three timelines. The user issue is in the seam where none of them looked.

Uptime and load tests rarely share a contract.

Uptime says "endpoint up." Load test says "p95 fine." Neither tells you that conversion is collapsing on the 14th step.

How LoadGen handles Web

Capture · Replay · Test · Monitor.

Four motions, every one running on the same Playwright engine - across heatmaps, journeys, API flows, load tests, and uptime checks.

Capture

SessionSight records real sessions across web, SPA, and multi-page apps. Heatmaps, journeys, and replay - image or DOM mode.

Replay

Visual API testing flows author validation logic against the same target - OpenAPI / Swagger import, environment variables, OAuth2 / Bearer auth.

Test

Generic wizard with native Web technology runs Playwright-based scenarios on Core agents - same engine as your monitoring profiles.

Monitor

Uptime checks (HTTP, REST, JSON-validated) and continuous End-to-End Monitoring keep the loop closed between releases.

Live · SessionSight Heatmaps

See the click. See the rage. Test it next release.

Heatmaps and journeys live on the same canvas as the load test. Real friction informs the next API flow; the next API flow blocks the next regression at the gate.

Playwright + Core agents
Cross-browser execution on Core agents - same engine across load, API, monitoring, and uptime.
Visual API flows
OpenAPI import, environment variables, reusable auth profiles - no scripts, full chain-of-trust.
OAuth2 + Bearer auth
Auth profiles authored once, applied to every API flow + load test + uptime check.
One DEM timeline
Heatmaps, journeys, replay, monitoring, and uptime - same audit trail, same filter set.

Outcomes · before / after

Three vendors → one timeline. Real friction → real fixes.
