locust

Load-testing tool to determine number of concurrent users a system can handle. More information: https://locust.io.
  • Load-test "example.com" with web interface using locustfile.py:
    locust --host={{http://example.com}}
  • Use a different test file:
    locust --locustfile={{test_file.py}} --host={{http://example.com}}
  • Run test without web interface, spawning 1 user a second until there are 100 users:
    locust --no-web --clients={{100}} --hatch-rate={{1}} --host={{http://example.com}}
  • Start Locust in master mode:
    locust --master --host={{http://example.com}}
  • Connect Locust slave to master:
    locust --slave --host={{http://example.com}}
  • Connect Locust slave to master on a different machine:
    locust --slave --master-host={{master_hostname}} --host={{http://example.com}}
