ezab toolkit
============

[](#ezab-toolkit)

This is a suite of tools for benchmarking (load testing) web servers and databases.

Goals
-----

[](#goals)

It is designed to be useful for consultants. Primary need is ease of use on hostile environments (a.k.a customers servers). This translates into:

- no install/deinstall process (just copy a text file and you're done)
- as few dependencies as possible (I work on servers where php is already installed so that does not count)
- easy learning curve: mimic usage of other existing, well known tools

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- php version 5 or higher
- ability to run php from the command line (for linux this often means installing the php-cli package)
- various php extensions, depending on the script used (`curl` for ezab.php, `mysqli` for ezmyreplay.php)

List of tools available
-----------------------

[](#list-of-tools-available)

- `ezab.php`: a clone of the Apache Bench tool
- `abrunner.php`: a script which runs AB many times in a row and collects aggregate data ( e.g. useful to test responsiveness of one web page while increasing concurrency or collect response times across a list of urls)
- `ezmyreplay.php`: replays queries from eg. a slow log against a mysql server ( e.g. useful to test responsiveness of one db while increasing concurrency or test performance changes obtained via configuration tweaks)

FAQ
---

[](#faq)

- **Q:** can these tools be installed via Composer? **A:** yes
