Not able to run a Taurus performance test on an existing API


After installing Taurus on Win 10 machine and creating a new file for performance testing my API:

perf-test-config.yml

execution:
- concurrency: 100
  ramp-up: 1m
  hold-for: 2m
  scenario: helloworld-api-perf-test

scenarios:
  quick-test:
    requests:
    - https://helloworld-api.cfapps.io

I get following error in log:

Error Log:

Solution

  • As in taurus User Manual scenario in execution should be also under scenarios for example:

    execution:
    - concurrency: 100
      ramp-up: 1m
      hold-for: 2m
      scenario: helloworld-api-perf-test
    
    scenarios:
      helloworld-api-perf-test:
        requests:
        - https://helloworld-api.cfapps.io
