loadtest

README

Here is how to run the load test locally. Make sure that you have installed go and git clone the repo

1. Build a fleet.

You can use any Kubernetes clusters you have and install the fleet agents on those clusters. In this example, we built a fleet with four member clusters, namely, cluster-1 to cluster-4. Please remember to save the kubeconfig file pointing to the hub cluster of the fleet.

1. Run the load test binary locally.

export KUBECONFIG=xxxxx
go run hack/loadtest/main.go -max-current-placement 10 --cluster cluster-1 --cluster cluster-2 --cluster cluster-3 --cluster cluster-4 

1. Manually check the metrics against the load test.

curl http://localhost:4848/metrics | grep workload 

1. Use a local prometheus to draw graphs. Download prometheus binary for your local machine. Start the prometheus.

./prometheus --config.file=hack/loadtest/prometheus.yml
