K8s Test Suite
This Helm chart deploys a full load test suite in Kubernetes. It consists of the 3 micro-services:
- A webserver based on simple-webserver
- A loadbot client which is based on this and that
- An aggregator which orchestrates the test run
Aggregator
Since the webservers and the loadbots work autonomic the task of the aggregator ist to orchestrate the test run. It does this by useing the Kubernetes api via client-go library to talk set up the desires replicas of each unit. The test run consists of the following tests scenarios:
| Scenario | Loadbots | Webserver |
|---|---|---|
| Idle | 1 | 1 |
| Under load | 1 | 10 |
| Equal load | 10 | 10 |
| Over load | 100 | 10 |
| High load | 100 | 100 |
The maximum count of replicas (default 100) can be set with --set aggregator.maxReplicas=....
Loadbots
The loadbots have the task to run a predefined level of queries per second. Vegeta publishes detailed statistics which will be fetched and evaluated by the aggregator. This metrics are:
- Queries-Per-Second (QPS)
- Success-Rate
- Mean latency
- 99th percentile latency
Test results
When all tests are finishes the aggregator will print the following summary to its logs:
GENERATING SUMMARY OUTPUT Summary of load scenarios: 0. Idle : QPS: 10037 Success: 100.00 % Latency: 949.82µs (mean) 3.004154ms (99th)
