LG - Load Generator

[A-Thresher]

@## Overview
Given a JavaScript test script, run that test script a given number of times in parallel for a given length of time. Send collected metrics to aggregator (batch or stream?)

Implementation

Inputs: test script, number of parallel process (the number of VUs it is responsible for), time to test, test start boolean
Outputs: Per test: test runtime + request, response, latency for each call in the test, at end of runtime send results of all tests

Notes:
Test script could contain the other inputs (VU count and duration)
