TSUNG(1) TSUNG(1)

tsung - A distributed multi-protocol load testing tool.

tsung [ -f configuration file ] [ -l log dir ] [ -m filename ] [ -r command ] [ -X directory ] [ -w delay ] [ -L lifetime ] [ -s ] [ -n ] [ -k ] [ -v ] [ -6 ] [ -h ] [ start|stop|debug|status ]

tsung is a distributed load testing tool. It is protocol-independent and can currently be used to stress and benchmark HTTP, WebDAV, LDAP, PostgreSQL, MySQL and Jabber/XMPP servers.

It simulates user behaviour using an XML description file, reports many measurements in real time (statistics can be customized with transactions, and graphics generated using gnuplot).

For HTTP, it supports 1.0 and 1.1, has a proxy mode to record sessions, supports GET and POST methods, Cookies, and Basic WWW-authentication. It also has support for SSL.

Several config examples can be found in /usr/share/doc/tsung/examples/.

start
start tsung load testing
debug
start tsung with an interactive erlang shell
stop
stop tsung
status
print current status of a running instance of tsung (must be run on the controller host)
