Synthetic monitoring

You can use k6 as synthetic monitoring tool by scheduling k6 smoke tests for continuous production monitoring.

For a more comprehensive solution, you can use Grafana Cloud Synthetic Monitoring to proactively monitor your application and services in production. You can run k6 smoke tests at frequent intervals, receive alerts on potential issues, and manage incidents directly from Grafana Cloud.
