Show HN: LoadGQL – a CLI for load-testing GraphQL endpoints Hi HN I’ve been working with GraphQL for a while and always felt the tooling around load testing was lacking. Most tools either don’t support GraphQL natively, or they require heavy setup/config. So I built *LoadGQL* — a single-binary CLI (written in Go) that lets you quickly stress-test a GraphQL endpoint. *What it does today (v1.0.0):* - Run queries against any GraphQL endpoint (no schema parsing required) - Reports median & p95 latency, throughput (RPS), and error rate - Supports concurrency, duration, and custom headers - Minimal and terminal-first by design *Roadmap:* p50/p99 latency, output formats (JSON/CSV), multiple query files. Landing page: [ https://bit.ly/3Vds2Kq ]( https://bit.ly/3Vds2Kq ) I’d love feedback from the HN community: - What metrics matter most to you for GraphQL performance? - Any sharp edges you’d expect in a GraphQL load tester? Thanks for checking it out! https://bit.ly/3Vds2Kq August 24, 2025 at 02:30AM
