Case Study: EPI Company SE strengthens API performance and security testing with Gatling

How EPI Company SE optimized API performance and security testing with Gatling

EPI Company SE, a company building a European payment solution called Wero, needed to optimize its API performance and security testing to ensure a secure and scalable payment experience. The company faced challenges with high compute costs from simulating secure APIs, unstable test results, and a lack of centralized reporting while using Gatling Enterprise Edition.

By fully embracing Gatling Enterprise Edition, EPI implemented Kotlin-based scripting, private AWS test locations, and optimized scripts to lower CPU usage and costs. This solution provided the centralized reporting and integrations they needed. As a result, Gatling helped EPI reduce test infrastructure costs, remove performance bottlenecks, and operationalize performance testing as a standard practice across multiple engineering teams.
