go-load-tester

go-load-tester is a distributed load testing framework. It is based on Vegeta and can run in a distributed mode (something that Vegeta cannot do at the moment), borrowing the approach from Locust.

NOTE: this is a work in progress.

Known limitations:

  • The framework is currently Sentry-oriented. The data generators that are currently supported are described here.
  • Worker registration/keep-alive behaviour is not very robust

Usage

For supported load generators and parameter details -- see here.

More information about the general architecture and writing tests.

The load tester can run in a few modes:

  • as a master process controlling worker load testers
  • as a worker load tester
  • as a standalone load tester ( this is achieved by running it in worker mode without providing a master url)

Global usage

Master Mode

NOTE: When running the load tester in master mode the server also exposes a documentation page under the /docs url ( i.e. http(s)://<SERVER_ADDRESS:PORT>/docs)

Worker Mode and Standalone Mode

For running the load tester in standalone mode do not provide the master-url parameter
