Locust.io & Spring OAuth2

• This is an example Locust.io load testing application demonstrating how to interact with a Spring OAuth2 REST API.
• This is only a reference implementation and will need to be modified to work with your web application.

Tech

• Locust.io → http://locust.io
• Spring OAuth2 → https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-oauth2
• Python → https://www.python.org
• Pip → bundled with Python 2.7+
• Virtualenv → https://virtualenv.pypa.io

Run

Must Have Python installed (version 2.7+)

1. $ pip install virtualenv (this installs virtualenv globally)
2. change to directory where locust-test.py lives
3. $ virtualenv venv (creates a virtualenv folder labeled venv)
4. $ source venv/bin/activate (activate virtual environment)
5. $ pip install -r requirements.txt (this installs all dependencies into venv only)
6. $ locust -f locust-test.py (start locust w/ python test file)
7. open a browser and goto http://localhost:8089

To close locust: Ctrl+c via command line

To escape from the virtual environment: $ deactivate
