The next step in performance testing? The GitLab Environment Toolkit

The GitLab Environment Toolkit (GET) is an innovative solution designed to automate the deployment of GitLab at scale, supplementing the performance testing facilitated by the GitLab Performance Tool (GPT). Developed by the Quality Engineering Enablement team, GET simplifies provisioning and configuration by utilizing open-source tools like Terraform and Ansible to deploy GitLab Omnibus and Helm Charts across cloud providers such as GCP, AWS, and Azure. This toolkit supports various GitLab Reference Architectures, including dynamic deployment from 1,000 to 50,000 users, cloud-native hybrid architectures, and features like zero downtime upgrades, built-in load balancing, and monitoring capabilities. Emphasizing simplicity and maintainability, GET is not intended to replace existing installation methods but rather to streamline the setup process for scalable GitLab environments, with ongoing developments planned to expand its capabilities and address customer feedback.
