Full‑Link Load Testing of iQIYI Playback Service: Process, Tools, and Outcomes

iQIYI implemented full‑link load testing of its playback service using LoadMaker for traffic generation and Rover for link control, mapping the topology, creating weighted user scenarios, and safely pressurizing production‑like environments, which validated multi‑times historical peak capacity, uncovered bottlenecks, and enabled several performance and disaster‑recovery improvements without impacting real users.
