Pylot Dev Update - Web Performance - Release 1.0

Pylot Dev Update - Web Performance - Release 1.0

Finally did the version 1.0 release! visit www.pylot.org to download.

Pylot is still lacking some features I want to add for it to become a serious performance/load testing tool, but the current release delivers very usable functionality.

Current Features:

  • multi-threaded load generator
  • HTTP and HTTPS (SSL) support
  • response verification with regular expressions
  • execution/monitoring console
  • real-time stats
  • results reports with graphs
  • GUI mode
  • shell/console mode
  • cross-platform

Aside from the GUI, there is also a new shell/console interface mode with real-time output for quickly profiling performance your application/service under test from the command line. In this mode, Pylot can run cross-platform. (tested on Windows XP, Vista, Cygwin, Ubuntu, MacOS)

Note: Extra special thanks to Vasil Vangelovski for implementing the original console output and C++ extension
