What is Docker-YaTank

Docker-YaTank is a Yandex.Tank container for load testing. This container is based on ErgoZ's one, but uses PyPI Tank package instead of .deb

How to use

Usable params

• -h, --help - show command line options
• -c CONFIG, --config=CONFIG - read options from INI file. It is possible to set multiple INI files by specifying the option serveral times. Default: /yandex-example-configs/load.iniload.ini
• -i, --ignore-lock - ignore lock files
• -f, --fail-lock - don't wait for lock file, quit if it's busy. The default behaviour is to wait for lock file to become free.
• -l LOG, --log=LOG - main log file location. Default: ./tank.log
• -n, --no-rc - don't read /etc/yandex-tank/*.ini and ~/.yandex-tank
• -o OPTION, --option=OPTION - set an option from command line. Options set in cmd line override those have been set in configuration files. Multiple times for multiple options. Format: <section>.<option>=value Example: yandex-tank -o "console.short_only=1" --option="phantom.force_stepping=1"
• -s SCHEDULED_START, --scheduled-start=SCHEDULED_START - run test on specified time, date format YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss or hh:mm:ss
• -q, --quiet - only print WARNINGs and ERRORs to console
• -v, --verbose - print ALL messages to console. Chatty mode

Add an ammo file name as a nameless parameter, e.g.: yandex-tank ammo.txt or yandex-tank ammo.gz

rps_schedule=const(5,1m) ; load scheme
header_http = 1.1
headers = [Host: example.com] [Cookies: None] [Connection: close]
ammo = /yandex-tank-configs/ammo.txt
