The purpose of this tool is to help with stress testing OpenStack. It makes asynchronous http requests to slam an OpenStack deployment. For example, the following makes 50 create server requests in parallel:
stackattack create 50
sudo cpanm stackattack
or
curl -L cpanmin.us | perl - --sudo stackattack
or
sudo cpan Net::OpenStack::Attack
To install from a local git checkout, cd to the project directory and run:
sudo cpanm .
If you do not have cpanm, you can install it via:
curl -L cpanmin.us | perl - --sudo cpanm
After installing, stackattack will be in your system path.
Run stackattack and the available commands will be listed.
Make sure to source a novarc file first to have env variables set up.
