JetBrains IDE Integration

Gopher Glide features an official JetBrains plugin that brings load testing directly into your IDE. The plugin bridges the gap between your workspace and the TUI-based CLI, providing a seamless execution and profiling experience.

Features

  • Smart YAML editing — auto-complete, validation, and JSON Schema integration for your config.yaml load plans.
  • Clickable File References — jump instantly from your config to your .http files.
  • Terminal-First Execution — execute your API benchmarking directly into the IDE’s built-in tool window, complete with full TUI support.
  • Snap UI Tool Window — a dedicated panel to list all behavioral snapshots, view detailed schema distributions, and natively run semantic diffs right in the IDE terminal view.
  • Custom Snap Configuration — smoothly point the plugin to custom snapshot directory paths matching your project structure.
