Pylot 1.11 Released - Web Performance Tool

I just did a new release Pylot (Web Performance Tool). No new features; just some internal fixes and a small change to the console output.

Grab it here: http://pylt.googlecode.com/files/pylot_1.11.zip

  1. Great!
    I am a performance test engineer. I just have an idea to develop a performance test tool by python, just like OpenSTA, LoadRunner etc.
    I search in google and find your blog, great! It is very helpful, thank you!

  3. Goldberg,
    I just started using this tool. It is fairly simple to setup and very easy to develop test cases with XML wrapper. Thanks a lot for providing such a wonderful tool.

    However I have an issue,

    I tried setting add_header to simulate required user-agent (browsers)

    add_header>User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U;Windows NT 5.1;en-US;rv:1.8.1.17) Gecko/20080829 Firefox/2.0.0.17\r\n "lt"/add_header"gt"

    Removed "> < symbols" to post the code here

    however, tool sets user-agent with a truncated value in the req

    user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U;Windows NT 5.1;en-US; rv\r\n

    am i missing something here?

    thanks

    it is probably a bug.. I will investigate it.

    also, why are you putting carriage returns and line feeds in your user agent string?

    just copied header content from a sniffer tool. it is the culprit! I apologize for it.I could have tried without those before asking you.

    However, how can i use the browser recorder to avoid such prob in the future?
    I get erro while running the recorder

    C:\Program Files\pylot_1.11\lib>python pylot_recorder.py
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "pylot_recorder.py", line 26, in "lt"module>
    from win32com.client import Dispatch, WithEvents
    ImportError: No module named win32com.client

    PS : Is this the right forum to seek support on pylot? Else guide me to correct forum

    regards
