hurl

hurl, a tool to hurl traffic at URLs

hurl provides a suite of network benchmarking and result analytic tools.

You can start using hurl with commands similar to Apache Bench ab, but as your needs grow, it exposes a framework for more complicated and large scale test plans, including distributing work across many machines.

Installation

go install github.com/pquerna/hurl/hurl

Running

hurl http supports most of the basic arguments from Apache Bench. A simple example:

# hurl http -c 100 -n 10000 http://127.0.0.1/

Not just HTTP!

hurl also can benchmark other services, like MongoDB:

hurl swift -u ${SWIFT_USER} -k ${SWIFT_APIKEY} load

Available Tasks:

• http

Improving, adding features, taking hurl new directions!
