    Please meet Loadjitsu, my weekend project, years in the making. Over the years while building different apps and sites, I always felt that I need a modern load testing software.Tools like JMeter, ab are not very easy to use and it seems innovation in load testing which is a crucial part of any software release cycle has been ignored. This is my third attempt at making Loadjitsu, I am so glad that I can finaly release this. A bit more about the software 1. Powered by golang you can run load tests for tens of thousands of connections per second on very average hardware. 2. Cross platform, run…

    Balter (Build A Load TestER) is a distributed load/stress testing framework for Rust. It leverages the tokio ecosystem to make it simple to write normal Rust code which auto-scales to meet TPS requirements or to scale indefinitely until a certain error rate. Using Balter is straightforward, and load testing code looks like the following (note that its just normal Rust code, no DSL to learn). use balter::prelude::*; use std::time::Duration; #[tokio::main] async fn main() { my_scenario() .tps(500) .duration(Duration::from_secs(30)) .await; my_scenario() .saturate()…

    Hey HN, I wanted a better load testing solution – so I built one with my team at Multiple. We just opened early access and would love to get your feedback. We created Multiple to solve three challenges with existing tools: 1. Limited scripting capabilities. XML or GUI-based scripting can only test basic scenarios. Existing code-based tools struggle with auth, generating synthetic data, and testing anything other than HTTP requests. We went with JavaScript for ease of use, versatility, and integration with existing developer workflows. 2. Cannot use existing libraries or code. Instead of…

    This project is inspired by some of the asserts in Unreal engine. Due to reliance on core_intrinsics it is necessary to develop using nightly Rust, but there are stubs in place so a production build will not require nightly. I recently released version 0.2 which includes no_std support and adds optional log message arguments to the ensure macro.

    "Game" is a stretch, but I put together this repo containing a pure Rust app which uses SDL2 and compiles to WASM (and can be run in a browser). Older resources were a bit out of date and a bit too verbose for my purposes, so here's a minimal working example.

    Balter, A Load TestER, is a new distributed load testing framework I've been working on for the past few months. It is Open Source, and designed from the ground up to support composability. This allows flexibility in the kinds of load tests you are able to run, such as fully stressing the system and then automatically turning off services; or the ability to run a background noise test, and then slam the service with traffic. Let me know what you think!

    There are plenty of good tools for load testing such as JMeter, Minigun, and plenty more - but they all have their own set of options to learn. I built this one to support a simpler workflow where you just paste your curl request (or other cli command) after your `spam` config (literally just `spam -r 2 -- curl www.google.com). It's pretty barebones but I'm 100% going to use it in my day to day - figured I'd share it here if it helped anyone else!
