Keycloak Performance Testsuite - Stress Testing
Requirements
- Bash
bc: Arbitrary precision calculator.
Stress Test
The performance testsuite contains a stress-testing script: stress-test.sh.
The stress test is implemented as a loop of individual performance test runs.
The script supports two algorithms:
- incremental (default)
- bisection
The incremental algorithm loop starts from a base load and then increases the load by a specified amount in each iteration.
The loop ends when a performance test fails, or when the maximum number of iterations is reached.
The bisection algorithm loop has a lower and an upper bound, and a resolution parameter.
In each iteration the middle of the interval is used as a value for the performance test load.
Depending on whether the test passes or fails the lower or upper half of the interval is used for the next iteration.
The loop ends if size of the interval is lower than the specified resolution, or when the maximum number of iterations is reached.
Usage
export PARAMETER1=value1
export PARAMETER2=value2

stress-test.sh [-DadditionalTestsuiteParam1=value1 -DadditionalTestsuiteParam2=value2 ...]
Parameters
Script Execution Parameters
| Variable |
Description |
Default Value |
MVN |
The base Maven command to be used. |
mvn |
KEYCLOAK_PROJECT_HOME |
Root directory of the Keycloak project. |
Root directory relative to the location of the stress-test.sh script. |
DRY_RUN |
Don't execute performance tests. Only print out execution information for each iteration. |
false |
Performance Testuite Parameters
| Variable |
Description |
Default Value |
DATASET |
Dataset to be used. |
1r_10c_100u |
WARMUP_PERIOD |
Value of warmUpPeriod testsuite parameter. |
120 seconds |
RAMPUP_PERIOD |
Value of rampUpPeriod testsuite parameter. |
60 seconds |
MEASUREMENT_PERIOD |
Value of measurementPeriod testsuite parameter. |
120 seconds |
FILTER_RESULTS |
Value of filterResults testsuite parameter. Should be enabled. |

|
Stress Test Parameters
| Variable |
Description |
Default Value |
STRESS_TEST_ALGORITHM |
Stress test loop algorithm: incremental or bisection. |
incremental |
STRESS_TEST_MAX_ITERATIONS |
