narcolepsy 0.0.1

Give your application a break.

Sleep soundly. Sleep randomly.

Overview

The narcolepsy package contains code which alters the behavior of your application/api by injecting random sleep calls into its code paths.

Usage

The following code is an example of using the @narcoleptic decorator.

from narcolepsy import narcoleptic

@narcoleptic(max=5)  # sleep for 5 seconds at max
def foobar():
    for x in xrange(1024):
        nested_function(x)

Installation

The easiest way to install narcolepsy is via pip:

$ pip install narcolepsy

Why?

Why not? There are probably testing applications that I haven’t considered where timing is an integral component to the execution environment. Or you could use this to make sneaking by CAPTCHAs a bit easier :D
