Thoughts? > > Or only API should be considered while doing performance testing I don't know what is UI/UX performance testing, however you might want to assess *frontend* <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontend_and_backend> performance. If it's a once-only action you can use a specialized solution like Lighthouse <https://developer.chrome.com/docs/lighthouse/overview> In case you want to automate it and run along with JMeter tests you can consider using a browser automation framework like Selenium <https://www.selenium.dev/>. There is WebDriver Sampler <https://jmeter-plugins.org/wiki/WebDriverSampler/> plugin which provides JMeter + Selenium integration, it can be installed using JMeter Plugins Manager <https://www.blazemeter.com/blog/jmeter-plugins-manager>
