Welcome to load testing Puppet with Gatling!

This is the main Puppetlabs load testing repository for its http services. The repository is currently split into three projects:

  1. proxy_recorder -- This is the shell based tool to record http interactions of a client against a server so they can be re-used as a Gatling load testing scenario.
  2. simulation_runner -- This is the tool to replay the recorded scenarios as a preconfigured simulation run using Gatling.
  3. jenkins_integration -- This project leverages Beaker to provision new environments in Puppetlabs' Jenkins infrastructure that are suitable for being load tested using simulation_runner.

Note that the state of the various config files required by all the parts of this system is a bit chaotic and confusing; hopefully we can figure out some ways to simplify it going forward, but for now, see ./README_CONFIG_FILE_MADNESS.md for some info on the current state of affairs.
