Provide a platform/tools for authorized load testing (with consent from owners), plus clear guidance, safe tooling, and measurable outcomes. 1) Value proposition and core features Clear value: Safe, repeatable load testing for websites/APIs with permission, using industry-standard tools. Core features: Test plan generator: define objectives, targets, ramp-up, duration. Script templates: Locust, k6, and JMeter-ready starter scripts. Scheduling and authorization workflow: permission check, scope, window, and targets. Real-time dashboards: latency, throughput, error rate, resource usage, G75/GR80 percentile. Safety controls: rate limits, max concurrent users, automatic abort on failures. Report generator: run reports, recommendations, and post-test cleanup checklist. Guardrails: test environment presets, data seeding, and environment mirroring. 2) MVP ideas (2–week sprint) MVP1: Test plan builder Users input target URL, goals (e.g., 1000 RPS, 99th percentile < 500 ms), duration, ramp-up. Outputs a ready-to-run Locust/k6 script and a test plan PDF. MVP2: Script templates with one-click customization Starter Locustfile and k6 script for common scenarios (browse, login, API calls). MVP3: Safe runner + monitoring Local or staging runner with rate caps, live dashboard, and alerting. MVP4: Ethics & authorization module Digital consent form, scope validation, and an “authorization token” flow to enforce permissions. 3) Idea sprint: quick wins (brainstorm) Use-case templates: API endpoints with authentication flows Content-heavy sites with slow pages WebSocket-based real-time services Reusable test patterns: Ramp-up with exponential backoff Think-time between actions Session management and login flows Safety features: Auto-pause on error rate spike Environment validation (URL schema, environment tags) Data masking for test data 4) Architecture and tech stack Frontend: simple dashboard for test planning, authorization, and results. Backend: API to create/manage tests, store results, and generate reports. Load-testing engines: Locust (Python) k6 (JavaScript) Optional: JMeter for enterprise users Observability: Real-time metrics: latency, RPS, error rate System metrics (CPU, memory, network) via agents or pushgateway Security/ethics: Permission verification, environment gating, and audit logs 5) Ethical testing workflow (with permission) Step 1: Authorization Written/emailed permission specifying scope, targets, windows, and success criteria. Step 2: Scope definition Target endpoints, authentication method, data retention rules. Step 3: Test planning Define metrics: latency, error rate, saturation thresholds. Step 4: Safe execution Run on staging or a dedicated test environment; caps enforced. Step 5: Analysis and actions Compare against baselines; identify bottlenecks; plan fixes. Step 6: Cleanup Clear test data; revert any seeded data; confirm environment reset.
This proposal outlines a platform for conducting authorized load testing with a focus on safety, consent, and measurable outcomes. Here's a breakdown of the platform's components, MVP ideas, quick wins, architecture, and ethical testing workflow:
1) Value Proposition and Core Features
Value Proposition:
- Offer a secure, repeatable load testing solution for websites and APIs that respects owner consent and uses industry-standard tools.
Core Features:
- Test Plan Generator: Helps define objectives, targets, ramp-up, and duration for tests.
- Script Templates: Provides starter scripts for Locust, k6, and JMeter, simplifying the setup.
- Scheduling and Authorization Workflow: Ensures permissions are checked, and testing scope, window, and targets are defined.
- Real-Time Dashboards: Monitors latency, throughput, error rate, resource usage, and percentile metrics like G75/GR80.
- Safety Controls: Imposes rate limits, maximum concurrent users, and automatically aborts tests on failures.
- Report Generator: Produces detailed run reports, recommendations, and a post-test cleanup checklist.
- Guardrails: Offers test environment presets, data seeding, and environment mirroring to ensure safe testing.
2) MVP Ideas (2-week Sprint)
MVP1: Test Plan Builder
- Users input target URL, goals (e.g., 1000 RPS, 99th percentile < 500 ms), duration, and ramp-up.
- Outputs a ready-to-run Locust/k6 script and a PDF test plan.
MVP2: Script Templates with One-Click Customization
- Provides starter scripts for common scenarios like browsing, login, and API calls.
MVP3: Safe Runner + Monitoring
- Offers a local or staging environment runner with rate caps, a live dashboard, and alerting.
MVP4: Ethics & Authorization Module
- Features a digital consent form, scope validation, and an authorization token flow to enforce permissions.
3) Idea Sprint: Quick Wins (Brainstorm)
Use-Case Templates:
- API endpoints with authentication flows.
- Content-heavy sites with slow pages.
- WebSocket-based real-time services.
Reusable Test Patterns:
- Ramp-up with exponential backoff.
- Think-time between actions.
- Session management and login flows.
Safety Features:
- Auto-pause on error rate spike.
- Environment validation (URL schema, environment tags).
- Data masking for test data.
4) Architecture and Tech Stack
Frontend:
- Simple dashboard for test planning, authorization, and results visualization.
Backend:
- API to create/manage tests, store results, and generate reports.
Load-Testing Engines:
- Locust (Python) and k6 (JavaScript).
- Optional: JMeter for enterprise users.
Observability:
- Real-time metrics: latency, RPS, error rate.
- System metrics (CPU, memory, network) via agents or pushgateway.
Security/Ethics:
- Permission verification, environment gating, and audit logs.
5) Ethical Testing Workflow (with Permission)
Step 1: Authorization
- Obtain written/emailed permission specifying scope, targets, windows, and success criteria.
Step 2: Scope Definition
- Define target endpoints, authentication methods, and data retention rules.
Step 3: Test Planning
- Specify metrics like latency, error rate, and saturation thresholds.
Step 4: Safe Execution
- Conduct testing on staging or a dedicated test environment with enforced caps.
Step 5: Analysis and Actions
- Compare results against baselines, identify bottlenecks, and plan fixes.
Step 6: Cleanup
- Clear test data, revert any seeded data, and confirm environment reset.
This platform aims to streamline the load testing process while ensuring ethical practices and achieving reliable, measurable outcomes.
