Grafana k6 v0.46.0 release: All the latest features
Blog post from Grafana Labs
Grafana k6 v0.46.0 introduces significant updates, including the ability to configure TLS per gRPC connection, enhanced tracing support with k6 x Tempo integration, and a more efficient cloud output protocol using binary-based payloads over HTTP. The update also brings changes to the experimental k6 browser module, allowing automatic handling of browser lifecycles and requiring the specification of browser type in scenario options. Grafana Cloud k6 now offers features such as scheduled tests, activity panels, and customizable PDF reports, while the k6-operator pre-release candidate introduces the Private Load Zones API for cloud infrastructure testing. The extension ecosystem has been actively updated to meet new standards, with several new extensions added, and the k6 Champions program has welcomed new contributors, encouraging community engagement and advocacy.
