I use CAP for distributed jmeter or Gatling performance testing in AWS EC2. Simple_perf is a command line interface that allows distribution of jmeter or gatling tests to multiple EC2 instances in AWS. Tests are run on every instance through a single command (no more starting tests on individual instances). See the wiki for more

Getting Started

Install the gem

gem install simple_perf

Create a file ~/.simple_deploy.yml and include within it:

environments:
  preprod_us_east_1:
    access_key: XXX
    secret_key: yyy
    region: us-east-1
    user: ec2-user
    aws_keypair: EC2 Key Pair Name
    local_pem: ~/keypair.pem

Commands

For a list of commands, run simple_perf -h. To get more information about each subcommand, append a -h after the subcommand. For example: simple_perf status -h.

Running

The commands for simple_perf can be run once the gem is installed (gem install 'simple_perf') or a gemspec is created from a local copy. To create a local gem, do the following:

• Fork the code
• Clone the forked repo to your local
• Change the version (if you've made changes and want to see them)
• Build the gemspec gem build simple_perf.gemspec
• Install the new local gem gem install /my/directory/simple_perf/simple_perf-0.0.16.gem
