🌪️ What is StormQA?

Forget the complexity of JMeter. Forget the boilerplate of k6.

StormQA v2.1 is designed for developers and QA engineers who need immediate power. We believe that load testing shouldn't require writing hundreds of lines of code. With StormQA, you can simulate heavy traffic, analyze server bottlenecks, and verify API health in seconds, not hours.

"Pour the coffee, paste the cURL, and let the storm begin."

🔥 New in v2.1: The Game Changers

We listened to the community. Version 2.1 introduces features that bridge the gap between simple pingers and enterprise-grade testing tools.

📋 1. Magic cURL Import (New!)

Stop manually typing headers and bodies.

• Copy a request as cURL from your browser's Network tab.
• Paste it into StormQA.
• Done. We automatically parse the URL, Method, Headers, Cookies, and Body JSON for you.

🛠️ 2. Full HTTP Method Support

StormQA is no longer just for GET requests. We now fully support:

• GET - Retrieve data.
• POST - Create resources (JSON body support).
• PUT - Update existing data.
• DELETE - Remove resources.

✅ 3. Smart Assertions

Traffic is meaningless if the responses are wrong.

• Define a keyword (e.g., "success": true or token).
• StormQA will mark any response missing that keyword as a Failure, even if the HTTP status is 200.

💎 Core Module: Advanced Load Testing

The heart of StormQA is its powerful Load Testing Engine. It allows you to simulate realistic user behavior and visualize the impact on your server in real-time.

Key Capabilities:

• Visual Scenario Builder: Define your test logic instantly. Set the number of Users, test Duration, Ramp-up time, and Think Time.
• CyberChart™ Monitor: Unlike traditional tools that provide post-test data, StormQA features a live, high-precision graph that visualizes active users and throughput (RPS) second-by-second.
• Live Metrics Sidebar: Monitor critical health indicators—Active Users, Requests Per Second (RPS), Average Latency, and Error Counts.
• PDF Reporting: With a single click, generate a detailed PDF report containing execution summaries and performance metrics.

🛡️ Additional Diagnostic Modules

StormQA goes beyond load testing by integrating essential infrastructure diagnostics.

🌐 Network Simulation

Test how your application performs under unstable or slow network conditions. Inject artificial latency to ensure robustness.

• Profile-Based Testing: Quickly switch between presets like 3G, 4G LTE, Metro WiFi, or Satellite.
• Latency Verification: Verify the exact delay (in ms) introduced to the connection.

🗄️ Database Security & Stress

A dedicated module for backend discovery and stability testing.

• Smart Endpoint Discovery: Automatically scans for common API endpoints using intelligent user-agent spoofing.
• Connection Flood: Performs a stress test on your database connection pool to ensure it can handle concurrent bursts.

📦 Installation

StormQA is available on PyPI and can be installed with a single command.

Follow these steps to get StormQA running on your local machine.

1️⃣ Create a Virtual Environment

It's recommended to create a separate virtual environment for the project.

python3 -m venv venv

2️⃣ Activate the Environment

• On Linux/macOS:

  source venv/bin/activate
  

• On Windows:

  .\venv\Scripts\activate
  

3️⃣ Install StormQA

Install the latest version of StormQA directly from PyPI.

pip install --upgrade stormqa

🎯 Getting Started

🚀 Usage

Launch the modernized graphical interface:

stormqa open

Once the interface loads:

Select Method: Choose GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE.

Target: Enter URL or use the "Import cURL" button.

Config: Set your desired user load (e.g., 50 users).

Start: Click "START STORM ⚡" and watch the metrics fly.
