Configuring Gatling for Flood Agent
The simplest way to run Gatling is to use our all in one bundle.
- install Java JRE 8+
- unzip the bundle to e.g.
~/flood-gatling
If you already have Gatling installed, you only need to add the Flood Gatling Plugin jars to start testing with Flood.
Note that flood-gatling minimally modifies your Gatling installation. You may wish to take a copy of
$GATLING_HOME before adding flood-gatling- unzip & move the jars into
$GATLING_HOME/lib - edit
$GATLING_HOME/conf/gatling.conf
conf/gatling.conf
gatling {
...
data {
writers = [file, flood] # add flood to the list of writers
}
}
The next step is to configure your
config.yaml file to tell the Flood Agent to use this Gatling installation specifically.The minimal configuration used for this is:
tools:
gatling:
gatling_home: /path/to/gatling
For Gatling (and all supported tools) - there is the option to use our actual Flood Docker image if you do not wish to setup a local native tool binary install. Simply use the following properties in your
config.yaml to let Flood know that you wish to use Flood's docker container for the respective load test tool instead of your own.tools:
flood-element: true
gatling: true
jmeter: true
