Docker based performance testing framework

This framework could be used both for backend load testing with Apache Jmeter and frontend load test with sitespeed.io + webpagetest private instance. Grafana monitoring allows to view and analyze results in real time

Getting Started

Framework consists of next services:

• Grafana: data visualization & monitoring
• Influxdb: time series DB platform for metrics & events(Time Series Data)
• Telegraf: server agent for collecting & reporting metrics
• Sitespeed.io: set of tools for frontend load testing
• Graphite: time series DB platform for metrics
• Jenkins: continuous integration server for tests execution
• Portainer: service for managing docker environment
• Webpagetest: private instance of webpagetest server for frontend tests execution
• Apache Jmeter: tool for backend load testing

Framework architecture:

Prerequisites

To run framework install docker: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/.

You should be able to run docker run hello-world with no errors.

For Windown share drives with docker: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/stevelasker/2016/06/14/configuring-docker-for-windows-volumes/

Installing

1. git clone this repository
2. open performance-testing-framework dir
3. docker-compose up -d All containers should be up and running

Services endpoints

• jenkins localhost:8181
• grafana localhost:8857
• portainer localhost:9000
• webpagetest server localhost:80
• influxdb localhost:8653

Running the tests(demo)

Login to Jenkins with admin/admin(could be changed in docker-compose file) By default jenkins consists of 2 jobs:

• BackendJob: run Jmeter scenarios
• FrontendJob: run tests with sitespeed.io and webpagetest private instance

BackendJob

To run jmeter demo script: Open BackendJob -> Build with Parameters -> Set build parameters -> Select scenario -> Build

This job will start jmeter docker container and execute demo_scenario.jmx jmeter scenario

Jmeter test deliverables:

• jmeter log file
• raw test results in report.log csv file
• jmeter HTML report(available after test is finished)
• grafana load test monitoring dashboard(real-time monitoring)

FrontendJob

To run frontend test: Open FrontendJob -> Build with Parameters -> Set build parameters -> Build

This job will start sitespeed.io docker container and run test with parameters using WebPageTest private instance

Frontend test deliverables:

• sitespeed.io HTML report
• grafana load test monitoring dashboard(real-time monitoring)
