This repository contains source code of the RabbitMQ Performance Testing Tool. The client is maintained by the RabbitMQ team at Pivotal.
This is a standalone tool that is distributed in binary form using GitHub releases or Bintray and as a JAR file on Maven Central (see below). A Docker image is available as well.
Assuming the current directory is the root directory of the binary distribution, to launch a performance test with 1 producer and 1 consumer:
bin/runjava com.rabbitmq.perf.PerfTest
Use
bin/runjava com.rabbitmq.perf.PerfTest --help
to see all supported options.
The HTML Performance Tools are a set of tools that can help you run
automated benchmarks by wrapping around the PerfTest benchmarking
framework. You can provide benchmark specs, and the tool will take care
of running the benchmark, collecting results and displaying them in an
HTML page. Learn more here.
See CONTRIBUTING.md for an overview of the development process.
To build the JAR file:
./mvnw clean package
Files are then in the target directory.
To build the JAR file, source and binary distributions:
./mvnw clean package -P assemblies -Dgpg.skip=true
Files are then in the target directory.
PerfTest depends transitively on SLF4J for logging (through RabbitMQ Java Client). PerfTest binary distribution
ships with Logback as a SLF4J binding and uses Logback default configuration (printing logs to the console). If
for any reason you need to use a specific Logback configuration file, you can do it this way:
bin/runjava -Dlogback.configurationFile=/path/to/logback.xml com.rabbitmq.perf.PerfTest
If you use PerfTest as a standalone JAR in your project, please note it doesn't depend on any SLF4J binding,
you can use your favorite one.
