App should be running on http://localhost:8080/
TCP server should be running on http://0.0.0.0:8082/

How to use

• Navigate to http://localhost:8080/

• Fill the required fields with the details of the endpoint you want to load test.

• Press start

• Tests should begin and metrics should be visible

• Press stop button whenever you want to stop the tests.

Duration

You can optionally add duration in minutes or seconds to a test. The tests will run for the specified duration and stop automatically after.

Ramp up

Most tests require a pattern of of load generation. You would want to generate load in a linear manner or a step by step manner. Meteor Burst provides ramping up of users in linear fashion or using step. Linear Ramp up duration has to be provided in seconds.

Step Ramp up can be done as follow:

• Select Step option in the Ramp up dropdown. A table should be displayed.
  
• Add number of users, duration and unit (seconds, minutes). You can add as many steps as required.
  

Distributed Load testing

Incase you want to generate a high load. You can install meteor client and run them on different machines.Follow the steps below

• Install meteor go get github.com/jz-jess/meteor
  
• Run meteor <server-ip>:<port>, Ex: meteor 0.0.0.0:8082
  You can see the number of slaves connected in the UI. The tests will automatically run on slaves.
  

Important: When running meteor client, port should always be 8082 since tcp server runs on 8082. Clients will get disconnected when app server is closed.
