Vegeta VS Apache JMeter

Vegeta worth a look if you want something a bit more sophisticated: https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

There are tons of tools to do this, I'll use Vegeta

To install vegeta, grab the right download url from https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta/releases/tag/v12.11.1 and download using the below command.

One of the easiest ways to send lots of fabricated requests at the same time is to use the Vegeta load testing tool. Being a load testing tool, it can send lots of requests consistently, every second, to the given target URL. You can read more about Vegeta on GitHub. The binary can be downloaded and used without installation.

Good morning what tool do you use to test your infra in terms of http load ? A tool that works, I tested : - https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta but it returns 0 errors or a http_net error from Golang - LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Canon) https://github.com/NewEraCracker/LOIC but the requests do not appear in my nginx logs and I feel no slowdown - Apache Jmeter https://jmeter.apache.org/ but I can't drop my infra and I have Java socket closed errors - K6 https://k6.io/ but I can't bring down my infra with - wrk https://github.com/wg/wrk no matter what parameter I put it doesn't make enough requests per second, I put the same parameters as on a tutorial and I don't get the same result...

I use tools like vegeta and wrk2 to answer those questions.

A module can be an executable and a library at the same time. For example, https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

Some tools to investigate: * https://prometheus.io/ * https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

No, not at all. You just need a tool like Vegeta.

Usually, I would let organic users be my load test. However, I am working on a project that has an anticipated load on a new-to-my-team stack, so I'm looking into ways to load test.

I've seen tools like k6 (https://k6.io/), Artillery (https://www.artillery.io), and JMeter (https://jmeter.apache.org/).

I've been using Artillery, but it's hard to visualize the results.

What do you use?

Apache JMeter: This tool is an open-source application built on Java, designed specifically to test load functionality and performance. Developed by the Apache Software Foundation, JMeter is versatile, able to simulate loads across a wide range of services and protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, JDBC, LDAP, and SOAP. With an extensible core that can be tailored with plugins, it provides the flexibility needed for different testing scenarios. Its intuitive GUI makes it easy for testers to design test plans and visualize the results in various ways.

I'll use Apache JMeter to do this experiment:

Thanks for the tip. Hows that compare to this tool? https://jmeter.apache.org/

Apache JMeter: Download and install JMeter from the official website (https://jmeter.apache.org/). Java Development Kit (JDK): JMeter requires Java, so ensure you have the latest JDK installed on your system. Postman: Install Postman from the official website (https://www.postman.com/downloads/).

The test scenario consists of querying for descriptions of different offers. During the test, I will collect data on memory and GC parameters using jConsole. I will run the test scenario using jMeter, which additionally will allow me to measure response times.

FYI some of our people internally use Jmeter. https://jmeter.apache.org/

It's not flashy so it probably wont get the standard "we are going to milk you for data" plan

Performance and load testing are essential parts of GraphQL API testing. It ensures APIs can handle expected traffic volumes and respond within acceptable timeframes. You can use tools like Apache JMeter or Gatling to generate realistic loads and evaluate the API's performance under different scenarios. Techniques like batched queries and caching can help mitigate this issue.
