Distributed Locust load tests

Run distributed Locust load tests on Azure Container Instances. It's quick, cheap and scalable! Using 20 slaves you can achieve ~12 000 req/s!

How to use

  1. Click "Create" button
  2. You can change some params:
    • Number of slaves (one slave ~600rps)
    • Locustfile (optional) - your test scenarios file (locustfile.py)
  3. Click Review and Create
  4. When deployment ends, go to resource group
  5. Go to container named xxxxxxxxxxxxx-master then find out FQDN and copy it. (ex. xxxxxxxxxxxxx-master.northeurope.azurecontainer.io)
  6. Go to http://xxxxxxxxxxxxx-master.northeurope.azurecontainer.io:8089 - your Locust dashboard is ready
Disclaimer
  • Load test affects target service performance. Never run load tests without service owner permission!
  • Some services can block traffic from generator - you should whitelist Azure Region IPs (Download prefixes).
  • After load tests cleanup Azure resources. You will be billed for running Azure Contianers Instance and Storage Account usage. You can check cost of ACI here.
