Developers in need of an open source load testing tool
About Locust
An open source load testing tool. Define user behavior with Python code, and swarm your system with millions of simultaneous users. No need for clunky UIs or bloated XML. Just plain code. Locust supports running load tests distributed over multiple machines, and can therefore be used to simulate millions of simultaneous users. A fundamental feature of Locust is that you describe all your test in Python code. No need for clunky UIs or bloated XML, just plain code. The easiest way to install Locust is from PyPI, using pip.
