Description of the project

pyStressTest

pyStressTest is a simple module for stress testing web resources.

from pyStressTest.stress_test import StressTest
from pyStressTest.monitor import ChartMonitor

stress = StressTest('http://127.0.0.1:8000')
stress.timeout = 0.5
stress.max_execution_time = 10
stress.max_thread_count = 100
monitor = ChartMonitor(stress)
monitor.start()
monitor.build_graph()

pyStressTest allows you to easily test your web resources with just a few lines of code. The project works with the help of threads, you can set their maximum number

stress.max_thread_count = 100

otherwise, they will be constantly created.

You can specify timeout, this variable affects the speed of sending requests and the speed of creating threads.

stress.timeout = 0.5

You can specify a maximum resource testing time.

stress.max_execution_time = 10

pyStressTest can automatically display test statistics, for this you can use two classes:

1. CMDMonitor - statistics will be displayed in the terminal;
2. ChartMonitor - statistics will be displayed as two graphs (using matplotlib).

You can read more in the class documentation.

pyStressTest, if the response code from the resource is != 200, it will consider this an error and display a message about this in the terminal and display it in the statistics.
