Developer friendly load testing framework

Locust is an easy to use, scriptable and scalable performance testing tool. You define the behaviour of your users in regular Python code, instead of using a clunky UI or domain specific language. This makes Locust infinitely expandable and very developer friendly.

Features:

 * Write user test scenarios in plain-old Python -- If you want your users to
   loop, perform some conditional behaviour or do some calculations, you just
   use the regular programming constructs provided by Python. Locust runs every
   user inside its own greenlet (a lightweight process/coroutine). This enables
   you to write your tests like normal (blocking) Python code instead of having
   to use callbacks or some other mechanism. Because your scenarios are “just
   python” you can use your regular IDE, and version control your tests as
   regular code (as opposed to some other tools that use XML or binary
   formats).
 * Distributed & Scalable - supports hundreds of thousands of users -- Locust
   makes it easy to run load tests distributed over multiple machines. It is
   event-based (using gevent), which makes it possible for a single process to
   handle many thousands concurrent users. While there may be other tools that
   are capable of doing more requests per second on a given hardware, the low
   overhead of each Locust user makes it very suitable for testing highly
   concurrent workloads.
 * Web-based UI -- Locust has a user friendly web interface that shows the
   progress of your test in real-time. You can even change the load while the
   test is running. It can also be run without the UI, making it easy to use
   for CI/CD testing.
 * Can test any system -- Even though Locust primarily works with web
   sites/services, it can be used to test almost any system or protocol. Just
   write a client for what you want to test, or explore some created by the
   community.
