httpstress v1.3.2

httpstress

Http stress testing / benchmarking tool

Installation

Just install with npm:

npm install -g httpstress

Usage

httpstress [options] <url>

Options:

• -c, --clients <number> : number of clients to launch (default 100)
• -F, --fail <status list> : Status numbers to consider as failure. Eg: '404,500'
• -g, --graph : draw graph when running
• -h, --help : print this help and exit
• -H, --header <header> : Define a header as 'Key: value' pair. Note that you can specify this option multiple times. Eg: 'Content-Type: application/json'
• -p, --post <data> : perform a POST request instead of a GET
• -S, --success <status list> : Status numbers to consider as successful response. All other response status will be considered failures if this option is specified. This overrides -F.

Note: Since httpstress follows redirects, specifying status 3xx for the value of -F has no effect. Specifying 3xx for the value of -S will cause all responses to be treated as failures.

Example:

httpstress -g -c 100 \
  -H 'Cookie: session=12345' \
  -F '400,401,403,404,500' \
