Gatling: upload simulation.log to S3 bucket from simulation

Question

I would like to upload the simulation.log file of a scenario to an S3 bucket once my simulation is finished.

I was thinking of adding the upload in the after block of my simulation.

I didn't find any example that does that. I only found scripts external to the simulation taking care if it.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't do it?

If not, how can I get the absolute path of the simulation.log?

Answer 1

Unfortunately block 'after' execute early then generating report. I would advise writing a script that runs after the test.

1. Go to directory with the last report.

cd target/gatling && cd "$(ls -td -- */ | head -n 1 | cut -d'/' -f1)"

2. Use aws cli for upload to s3

aws s3 cp simulation.log s3://my-bucket/
