Tendermint Load Testing Framework

tm-load-test comes with the ability to define your own load testing clients. A client is the part of the load tester that generates transactions specific to a particular ABCI application. By default, tm-load-test comes with support for the kvstore ABCI app, but what if you want to extend it to test your own ABCI app?

Requirements

To follow this guide, you'll need:

  • Go v1.12+

Creating a Custom ABCI Load Testing App

Step 1: Create your project

You'll effectively have to create your own load testing tool by importing the tm-load-test package into a new project.

mkdir -p /your/project/
cd /your/project
go mod init github.com/you/my-load-tester
Step 2: Create your load testing client

Create a client that generates transactions for your ABCI app. For an example, you can look at the kvstore client code. Put this in ./pkg/myabciapp/client.go

package myabciapp

import "github.com/informalsystems/tm-load-test/pkg/loadtest"

// MyABCIAppClientFactory creates instances of MyABCIAppClient
type MyABCIAppClientFactory struct {}

// MyABCIAppClientFactory implements loadtest.ClientFactory
var _ loadtest.ClientFactory = (*MyABCIAppClientFactory)(nil)

// MyABCIAppClient is responsible for generating transactions. Only one client
// will be created per connection to the remote Tendermint RPC endpoint, and
// each client will be responsible for maintaining its own state in a
// thread-safe manner.
type MyABCIAppClient struct {}

// MyABCIAppClient implements loadtest.Client
var _ loadtest.Client = (*MyABCIAppClient)(nil)

func (f *MyABCIAppClientFactory) ValidateConfig(cfg loadtest.Config) error {
    // Do any checks here that you need to ensure that the load test 
    // configuration is compatible with your client.
    return nil
}

func (f *MyABCIAppClientFactory) NewClient(cfg loadtest.Config) (loadtest.Client, error) {
    return &MyABCIAppClient{}, nil
}

// GenerateTx must return the raw bytes that make up the transaction for your
// ABCI app. The conversion to base64 will automatically be handled by the 
// loadtest package, so don't worry about that. Only return an error here if you
// want to completely fail the entire load test operation.
func (c *MyABCIAppClient) GenerateTx() ([]byte, error) {
    return []byte("this is my transaction"), nil
}
Step 3: Create your CLI

Create your own CLI in ./cmd/my-load-tester/main.go:

package main

import (
    "github.com/informalsystems/tm-load-test/pkg/loadtest"
    "github.com/you/my-load-tester/pkg/myabciapp"
)

func main() {
    if err := loadtest.RegisterClientFactory("my-abci-app-name", &myabciapp.MyABCIAppClientFactory{}); err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    // The loadtest.Run method will handle CLI argument parsing, errors, 
    // configuration, instantiating the load test and/or coordinator/worker
    // operations, etc. All it needs is to know which client factory to use for
    // its load testing.
    loadtest.Run(&loadtest.CLIConfig{
        AppName:              "my-load-tester",
        AppShortDesc:         "Load testing application for My ABCI App (TM)",
        AppLongDesc:          "Some long description on how to use the tool",
        DefaultClientFactory: "my-abci-app-name",
    })
}

For an example of very simple integration testing, you could do something similar to what's covered in integration_test.go.

Step 4: Build your CLI

Then build the executable:

go build -o ./build/my-load-tester ./cmd/my-load-tester/main.go
Step 5: Run your load test!

Then just follow the same instructions as for running the tm-load-test tool to run your own tool. It will use the same command line parameters.

Documentation

Overview

This file maintains data structures that correspond to those provided by Tendermint Core. Given that Tendermint Core is being archived, we currently consider it safer to replicate these structures here than rely on the original repository.

TODO(thane): Remove and replace with types provided by Informal Systems' fork of Tendermint Core.

Index

Constants

View Source
const (
	SelectSuppliedEndpoints   = "supplied"   // Select only the supplied endpoint(s) for load testing (the default).
	SelectDiscoveredEndpoints = "discovered" // Select newly discovered endpoints only (excluding supplied endpoints).
	SelectAnyEndpoints        = "any"        // Select from any of supplied and/or discovered endpoints.
)
View Source
const CLIVersion = "v1.3.0"

CLIVersion must be manually updated as new versions are released.

View Source
const (
	KVStoreClientIDLen int = 5 // Allows for 6,471,002 random client IDs (62C5)

)

The Tendermint common.RandStr method can effectively generate human-readable (alphanumeric) strings from a set of 62 characters. We aim here with the KVStore client to generate unique client IDs as well as totally unique keys for all transactions. Values are not so important.

Functions

func ExecuteStandalone

func ExecuteStandalone(cfg Config) error

ExecuteStandalone will run a standalone (non-coordinator/worker) load test.
