You can now run Locust on Loadium!

Seamlessly integrated into Loadium, with all standard features supported—including crucial ones such as Geolocation, Scatter Plot, PDF Export, Test Compare, and more.

## What’s New

* **Locust Integration**: Import your Locust test scripts directly into Loadium. Run and manage Locust-based tests with the same ease as JMeter or Gatling.
* **Scalable Load Generation**: Seamlessly distribute Locust tests across multiple load generators, enabling higher concurrency without manual setup.
* **Integrated Reporting**: View real-time metrics and post-test results in Loadium’s intuitive dashboard. You can also export detailed PDF reports or use Compare Test to benchmark multiple runs.

## Enhancements

* **Centralized Script Management**: Keep all your Locust scripts in one place, eliminating the hassle of switching between separate tools or environments.
* **Enhanced Visibility**: Monitor critical KPIs like response times, throughput, and error rates all within Loadium’s unified interface.
* **Expanded Compatibility**: Locust tests are supported alongside other frameworks (JMeter, Gatling), making Loadium your single hub for diverse performance testing needs.
