Template using Webpack and Babel to enable ES6 features in k6 tests
This is a template repository showing how to use Babel and Webpack to bundle the different files into CommonJS modules, using its webpack.config.js configuration.
In this project, you can write k6 tests using:
- node module resolution.
- external node modules and getting them automatically bundled.
- unsupported ES+ features like the optional chaining (
?.) operator.
Installation
Click Use this template to create a repository from this template.
Clone the generated repository on your local machine, move to the project root folder and install the dependencies defined in package.json
npm install
Running the test
Attempting to run the tests in src will fail because:
- k6 does not know how to resolve node modules.
- k6 does not recognize some ES+ features like the optional chaining (
?.) operator.
To address this, we'll use Webpack to bundle the dependencies and polyfill ES+ features.
npm run bundle
This command creates the final test files to the ./dist folder.
Once that is done, we can run our script the same way we usually do, for instance:
k6 run dist/optional-chaining-test.js
# or
k6 run dist/faker-test.js
