Phantomherd

Phantomherd provides a simple way to launch multiple PhantomJS instances in parallel to run a simple load test on your site.

Installation

Install via RubyGems:

$ gem install phantomherd

You'll also need CasperJS, which you can install via Homebrew:

$ brew install casperjs --devel

Usage

To run a basic load test, just supply the name of a CasperJS script to run:

$ phantomherd test.coffee

This will run the specified CasperJS script once in two parallel PhantomJS instances by default and report the results.

Parameters

You can specify sample size with the -s flag, and level of concurrency with the -c flag.

$ phantomherd -s 100 -c 25 test.coffee

This will run a total of 100 runs through the specified CasperJS script across 25 concurrent PhantomJS instances.
