keycloak-gatling

A basic gatling simulation to load test your keycloak installation.

Right now there is one Simulation to test the keycloak standard (Authorization Code) flow login with an configurable amount of keycloak clients and users.

The duration of the simulation is fixed (default: 30 seconds) and executes a fixed number of parallel requests (default: 5). Virtual user requests are generated randomly (client, user), based on fixed name pattern and a random number within a fixed range.

  • client id - app-client-NUM (default range: 5)
  • redirect url - http://client-app-NUM/sso/login
  • logout url - http://client-app-$randomClientId/logout
  • keycloak user - user-NUM (default range: 3)

There is no need for having actual client application(s), the simulation does not follow redirects and mimic the client application by extracting the authorization code from the Authorization Response Location header and initiating the Access Token Request by it self (including a one second wait to simulate the client application redirect). With the result of only testing keycloak itself (not your protected applications).

Please note that this simulation will not simulate your actual production load and is in many ways to simplistic (static logout, no token refresh, no usage of roles, etc.). It should mainly serve a starting ground where you can build on your actual (more complex) production simulation.

Data Setup

There are shell scripts to generate keycloak test data for the above mentioned schema, by utilizing the Admin REST API. The keycloak server credentials can be configured in keycloak-data-setup/login.sh file.

keycloak-data-setup/create-clients.sh NUM (default: 3)
keycloak-data-setup/create-users.sh NUM (default: 5)

Please note that this script will create users with an easy to guess usernames and fixed passwords, so dont use this with a public facing installation.

Run the Simulation

mvn gatling:test -DkeycloakUrl=http://localhost:10080/auth -DkeycloakRealm=gatling -Dduration=30 -DconcurrentUsers=5 -DkeycloakClients=3 -DkeycloakUsers=5

The number of actual keycloak clients and users should match with your keycloak test data.
