postman-to-loadimpact

Converts Postman collections to Load Impact user scenarios. Given a Postman collection, the transformer will auto-generate a Lua script to be imported as user scenario for your load tests.

The transformer converts Postman requests and variables into Lua requests and variables respectively.

Postman pre-requests and tests are appended as comments before and after its respective Lua request. The pre-request and test behaviour could easily be replicated with the Load Impact scripting API.

The Postman Collection Format v1 and v2 are supported.
