In order to run load scenario for your branch, change STACK_VERSION job parameter with <github_username>/<kibana_repo_name>:<your_branch>:

If you checkout kibana-load-testing repo next to the main kibana repo, you can run load scenario against your local build:

node scripts/functional_tests \
    --kibana-install-dir "$KIBANA_INSTALL_DIR" \
    --config test/load/config.ts

I'm adding simple runner and config to start kibana with basic license

I don't see anything in these files for a basic license. Wouldn't we typically use a trial license so all features are enabled?

My bad, it is actually a trial license. The same that we use in x-pack functional tests
