locust

Load-testing tool to determine number of concurrent users a system can handle.

• 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}
