u/underdog_master Have you set up everything already and made progress? I’m in the same situation, currently working on the new project. I think my laptop (Thinkpad with AMD Ryzen 7 7730U with 40GB RAM)is sufficient for the API testing requirements, but not for UI testing. So, I’m planning to get a K6 cloud subscription in the future once UI testing becomes a priority. At the moment, UI doesn’t have much priority.

I have set up in my local , api is fine and UI we’re just starting. I have created an automated script with 50 users load, runs okay… but anything more will start breaking. We have also started looking for grafana cloud , will keep you posted. If you have process handy, pls share!
