artillery-engine-nats

NATS engine for Artillery.io

Usage

The artillery-engine-nats is based on artillery's default HTTP engine.

Config

First of all, you need to set target to your NATS server and enabled nats engine:

config:
  target: 'nats://localhost:14222'
  engines:
    nats: {}

Scenario

Then, you can write your first NATS scenario:

scenarios:
  - name: 'Auth scenario'
    engine: 'nats'
    flow:
      - log: 'starting'
      - request:
          subject: 'ping'
      - request:
          subject: auth'
          json:
            login: 'user'
            password: 'foo'
          capture:
            - json: '$.token'
              as: 'token'
      - log: 'authorized'
      - request:
          subject: 'get-profile'
          json:
            token: '{{ token }}'
      - log: 'done'

Also loop, think, and function are supported.

For a complete example you can look at test.yaml
