Stress Less: Easy Database Load Testing Using Python and Locust

30 Minute Talk
Sunday at 12:30 pm in Orchid Ballroom East

Overview

Many people have probably used Locust or a tool built on top of it (like Load Forge) in the past. These tools are primarily used for web application load testing by hitting public endpoints and monitoring how they respond. In this talk we review how to use Locust to load test a PostgreSQL database.
