    Gatling Studio
    Gatling Studio is a native desktop application designed to convert real browser-based user journeys into clean, executable load tests built on the core Gatling engine (Java/Maven project structure) in minutes. It enables users to record a live browser session (or import an existing HAR file), automatically filter out noise (such as static assets, ads, third-party trackers), refine the user-flow scenario (by domain or request type), and generate production-ready Gatling code that can be version-controlled and extended. The resulting project can be opened in an IDE, committed to source control, customized with injection profiles or parameterization, and executed locally with Gatling Community Edition or scaled via Gatling Enterprise Edition. Gatling Studio is aimed at performance engineers, QA teams, and developers seeking to accelerate test creation while maintaining full “test-as-code” practices.
