简介
ab的全称是ApacheBench,是 Apache 附带的一个小工具,专门用于 HTTP Server 的benchmark testing,可以同时模拟多个并发请求。前段时间看到公司的开发人员也在用它作一些测试,看起来也不错,很简单,也很容易使用,所以今天花一点时间看了一下。
通过下面的一个简单的例子和注释,相信大家可以更容易理解这个工具的使用。
一个简单的例子
/*在这个例子的一开始,我执行了这样一个命令 ab -n 10 -c 10 http://www.google.com/。这个命令的意思是启动 ab ,向 www.google.com 发送10个请求(-n 10) ,并每次发送10个请求(-c 10)——也就是说一次都发过去了。跟着下面的是 ab 输出的测试报告,红色部分是我添加的注释。*/

更多信息
ab 不像 LR 那么强大,但是它足够轻便,如果只是在开发过程中想检查一下某个模块的响应情况,或者做一些场景比较简单的测试,ab 还是一个不错的选择——至少不用花费很多时间去学习 LR 那些复杂的功能,就更别说那 License 的价格了。
下面是 ab 的详细参数解释,大家有兴趣的可以研究一下,最近没有足够多的时间研究,如果哪位朋友有兴趣希望可以帮忙翻译一下每个参数的含义,有问题讨论也欢迎在这里回帖 ^_^
ab Supply BASIC Authentication credentials to the server. The username and password are separated by a single Number of multiple requests to perform at a time. Default is one request at a time. Add a Do not display the "percentage served within XX [ms] table". (legacy support). Write a Comma separated value (CSV) file which contains for each percentage (from 1% to 100%) the time (in milliseconds) it took to serve that percentage of the requests. This is usually more useful than the 'gnuplot' file; as the results are already 'binned'. Write all measured values out as a 'gnuplot' or TSV (Tab separate values) file. This file can easily be imported into packages like Gnuplot, IDL, Mathematica, Igor or even Excel. The labels are on the first line of the file. Display usage information. Append extra headers to the request. The argument is typically in the form of a valid header line, containing a colon-separated field-value pair (i.e., Do Enable the HTTP KeepAlive feature, i.e., perform multiple requests within one HTTP session. Default is no KeepAlive. Number of requests to perform for the benchmarking session. The default is to just perform a single request which usually leads to non-representative benchmarking results. File containing data to POST. Supply BASIC Authentication credentials to a proxy en-route. The username and password are separated by a single When processing more than 150 requests, When compiled in ( Do not display the median and standard deviation values, nor display the warning/error messages when the average and median are more than one or two times the standard deviation apart. And default to the min/avg/max values. (legacy support). Maximum number of seconds to spend for benchmarking. This implies a Content-type header to use for POST data. Set verbosity level - Display version number and exit. Print out results in HTML tables. Default table is two columns wide, with a white background.
