Developers that want to load test functional behavior
About JMeter
The Apache JMeter™ application is open source software, a 100% pure Java application designed to load test functional behavior and measure performance. It was originally designed for testing Web Applications but has since expanded to other test functions. Apache JMeter may be used to test performance both on static and dynamic resources, Web dynamic applications. It can be used to simulate a heavy load on a server, group of servers, network or object to test its strength or to analyze overall performance under different load types.

NeoLoad
Continuous performance testing software to automate API and application load testing. Design code-less performance tests for complex applications. Script performance tests <as:code /> within automated pipelines for API testing. Design, maintain and run performance tests as code and analyze results within continuous integration pipelines using pre-packaged plugins for CI/CD tools and the NeoLoad API. Create test scripts quickly for large, complex applications using a graphical user interface and skip the complexity of hand coding new and updated tests. Define SLAs based on built-in monitoring metrics. Put pressure on the app and compare SLAs to server-level statistics to determine performance. Automate pass/fail triggers based on SLAs. Contributes to root cause analysis. Update test scripts faster with automatic test script updates. Update only the part of the test that’s changed and re-use the rest for easy test maintenance.
