Consier add API for Stress Testing

I had the following idea or mostly request, and for suggestion of Sam Brannen I arrived here:

And according with the About the Project page, it contains:

if you have an idea for an extension you could make good use of, open an issue

Just curious, I want to know if has sense for JUnit 5 ask for or suggest a new feature:

API to simulate and have automatization for stress testing for some common scenarios:

• Network
• Database. It about simulating ‘fake’ user connections without matter the db provider, and of course many of these interacting with the DB (reading and writing).

Has sense for you? You are the experts

When doing stress or performance testing you have an large amount of different requirements for this parallel execution and the endpoints you want to test. As there are a large amount of tools who focus on this part of testing, like Gatling, SOAPUI, JMeter, LoadRunner and much much more I don’t think Pioneer can provide an extension which could compete with those specialized tools. Even because the focus of Pioneer as an Unittest extension has a different focus on testing and test execution - simple said: Testing the correct functional execution of the system under test during development / build, while performance testing tools focus on (simple said) testing a deployt application and its environment.

This why I would like to close this issue.

Have you tried Gatling?
