A simple while effective HTTP and HTTPS stress testing tool that can be used to measure some types of load. It's solely based on multi-mechanize and shares all of it's benefits. While ignoring httlib2 this test makes use of the wonderful requests library which utilizes httplib3. Therefore, HTTPS works very well and cert-based authentication and CA-verification is possible.
A hackish fork of multi-mechanize hard-removes the dependency on matplotlib which can be a hassle to install on some platforms (like OpenBSD 5.5 which this code has been developed on).
Work in progress!
Future development intends this test to be used with Ansible for remote controlled testing pleasure. Documentation is upcoming, too. Please stay tuned!
