Mattermost load-test-ng provides a set of tools written in Go to help profiling Mattermost under heavy load, simulating real-world usage of a server installation at scale.
It's a complete rewrite of the previous load-test tool which served as inspiration.
- Give an estimate on the maximum number of concurrently active users the target system supports.
- Enable more control over the load to generate through the use of Controllers.
- Provide extensive documentation from lower level code details to higher level guides and walk-throughs.
There are mainly two ways to run a load-test:
- On a Terraform deployment. This is the recommended way to start a load-test for production. Link to the guide
- Locally. This is a good way to getting started and better understand the inner mechanics. Link to the guide
