Yandex Tank

Description

Yandex.Tank is a console HTTP load testing instrument.

Installation and Configuration

You should add proper repositories on Debian-based environment.

For instance, add following repos to sources.list :

# Ubuntu Lucid/Precise
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/yandex-load/main/ubuntu precise main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/yandex-load/main/ubuntu precise main

or this way

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yandex-load/main

Then update package list and install yandex-load-tank-base package: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yandex-load-tank-base

For mild load tests (less then 1000rps) an average laptop with 32/64bit Ubuntu (Lucid/Precise) would be sufficient. The tank could be easily used in virtual machine if queries aren't too heavy and load isn't too big. Otherwise it is recommended to request a physical server or a more capable virtual machine from your admin. See also https://github.com/yandex-load/yandex-tank#load-server-configuration-and-tunning

Usage

So, you've installed Yandex.Tank to a proper server, close to target, access is permitted and server is tuned. How to make a test?

First Step

Create a file on a server with Yandex.Tank: load.conf

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=line(1, 100, 10m) #load scheme 

Yandex.Tank have 3 primitives for describing load scheme:

  1. step (a,b,step,dur) makes stepped load, where a,b are start/end load values, step - increment value, dur - step duration.
  2. line (a,b,dur) makes linear load, where a,b are start/end load, dur - the time for linear load increase from a to b.
  3. const (load,dur) makes constant load. load - rps amount, dur - load duration. You can set fractional load like this: const (a/b,dur) -- a/b rps, where a >= 0, b > 0. Note: const(0, 10) - 0 rps for 10 seconds, in fact 10s pause in a test.

step and line could be used with increasing and decreasing intensity: step(25, 5, 5, 60) - stepped load from 25 to 5 rps, with 5 rps steps, step duration 60s. step(5, 25, 5, 60) - stepped load from 5 to 25 rps, with 5 rps steps, step duration 60s line(100, 1, 10m) - linear load from 100 to 1 rps, duration - 10 minutes line(1, 100, 10m) - linear load from 1 to 100 rps, duration - 10 minutes

Time duration could be defined in seconds, minutes (m) and hours (h). For example: 27h103m645

For a test with constant load at 10rps for 10 minutes, load.conf should have next lines:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme

Voilà, Yandex.Tank setup is done.

Preparing requests

There are two ways to set up requests.

URI-style

URIs listed in load.conf or in a separate file.

URIs in load.conf

Update configuration file with HTTP headers and URIs:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme# Headers and URIs for GET requests
header_http = 1.1
headers = [Host: www.target.example.com]
  [Connection: close]
uris = /
  /buy
  /sdfg?sdf=rwerf
  /sdfbv/swdfvs/ssfsf

Parameters header define headers values. uri contains uri, which should be used for requests generation.

URIs in file

Create a file with declared requests: ammo.txt

[Connection: close]
[Host: target.example.com]
[Cookies: None]
/?drg
/
/buy
/buy/?rt=0&station_to=7&station_from=9

File begins with optional lines [...], that contain headers which will be added to every request. After that section there is a list of URIs. Every URI must begin from a new line, with leading '/'.

Request-style

Full requests listed in a separate file. For more complex requests, like POST, you'll have to create a special file. File format is:

[size_of_request] [tag]\n
[body_request]
\r\n
[size_of_request2] [tag]\n
[body_request2]
\r\n

where size_of_request – request size in bytes. '\r\n' symbols after body_requests are ignored and not sent anywhere, but it is required to include it in a file after each request. '\r' is also required. sample GET requests

73 good
GET / HTTP/1.0

Run Test!

  1. Request specs in load.conf
yandex-tank
  1. Request specs in ammo.txt
yandex-tank ammo.txt

Yandex.Tank detects requests format and generates ultimate requests versions.

yandex-tank here is an executable file name of Yandex.Tank.

If Yandex.Tank has been installed properly and configuration file is correct, the load will be given in next few seconds.

Results

During test execution you'll see HTTP and net errors, answer times distribution, progressbar and other interesting data. At the same time file phout.txt is being written, which could be analyzed later.

Tags

Requests could be grouped and marked by some tag. Example of file with requests and tags:

73 good
GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: xxx.tanks.example.com
User-Agent: xxx (shell 1)

77 bad
GET /abra HTTP/1.0
Host: xxx.tanks.example.com
User-Agent: xxx (shell 1)

75 unknown
GET /ab HTTP/1.0
Host: xxx.tanks.example.com
User-Agent: xxx (shell 1)

'good', 'bad' and 'unknown' here are the tags. RESTRICTION: latin letters allowed only.

SSL

To activate SSL add 'ssl = 1' to load.conf. Don't forget to change port number to appropriate value. Now, our basic config looks like that:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const (10,10m) #Load scheme
ssl=1

Autostop

Autostop is an ability to automatically halt test execution if some conditions are reached.

HTTP and Net codes conditions

There is an option to define specific codes (404,503,100) as well as code groups (3xx, 5xx, xx). Also you can define relative threshold (percent from the whole amount of answer per second) or absolute (amount of answers with specified code per second). Examples: autostop = http(4xx,25%,10) – stop test, if amount of 4xx http codes in every second of last 10s period exceeds 25% of answers (relative threshold) autostop = net(101,25,10) – stop test, if amount of 101 net-codes in every second of last 10s period is more than 25 (absolute threshold) autostop = net(xx,25,10) – stop test, if amount of non-zero net-codes in every second of last 10s period is more than 25 (absolute threshold)

Average time conditions

Example: autostop = time(1500,15) – stop test, if average answer time exceeds 1500ms

So, if we want to stop test when all answers in 1 second period are 5xx plus some network and timing factors - add autostop line to load.conf:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme
[autostop]
autostop=time(1,10)
  http(5xx,100%,1s)
  net(xx,1,30)

Logging

Looking into target's answers is quite useful in debugging. For doing that add 'writelog = 1' to load.conf. ATTENTION: Writing answers on high load leads to intensive disk i/o usage and can affect test accuracy. Log format:

<metrics>
<body_request>
<body_answer>

Where metrics are: size_in size_out response_time(interval_real) interval_event net_code (request size, answer size, response time, time to wait for response from the server, answer network code) Example:

user@tank:~$ head answ_*.txt 
553 572 8056 8043 0
GET /create-issue HTTP/1.1
Host: target.yandex.net
User-Agent: tank
Accept: */*
Connection: close


HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/javascript;charset=UTF-8

For load.conf like this:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme
writelog=1
[autostop]
autostop=time(1,10)
  http(5xx,100%,1s)
  net(xx,1,30)

Results in phout

phout.txt - is a per-request log. It could be used for service behaviour analysis (Excel/gnuplot/etc) It has following fields: time, tag, interval_real, connect_time, send_time, latency, receive_time, interval_event, size_out, size_in, net_code proto_code

NOTE: as Yandex.Tank uses phantom as an http load engine and this file is written by phantom, it contents depends on phantom version installed on your Yandex.Tank system.

Graph and statistics

Use included charting tool that runs as a webservice on localhost OR use your favorite stats packet, R, for example.

Custom timings

You can set custom timings in load.conf with time_periods parameter like this:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme
[aggregator]
time_periods = 10 45 50 100 150 300 500 1s 1500 2s 3s 10s # the last value - 10s is considered as connect timeout.

Thread limit

instances=N in load.conf limits number of simultanious connections (threads). Test with 10 threads:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme
instances=10

Dynamic thread limit

instances_schedule = <instances increasing scheme> -- test with active instances schedule will be performed if load scheme is not defined. Bear in mind that active instances number cannot be decreased and final number of them must be equal to instances parameter value. load.conf example:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
instances_schedule = line(1,10,10m)
#load = const (10,10m) #Load scheme is excluded from this load.conf as we used instances_schedule parameter

Custom stateless protocol

In necessity of testing stateless HTTP-like protocol, Yandex.Tank's HTTP parser could be switched off, providing ability to generate load with any data, receiving any answer in return. To do that add tank_type = 2 to load.conf. Indispensable condition: Connection close must be initiated by remote side load.conf example:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme
instances=10
tank_type=2

Gatling

If server with Yandex.Tank have several IPs, they may be used to avoid outcome port shortage. Use gatling_ip parameter for that. Load.conf:

[phantom]
address=23.23.23.23:80 #Target's address and port .
rps_schedule=const(10, 10m) #load scheme
instances=10
gatling_ip = 23.23.23.24 23.23.23.26

run yandex-tank with -g key

Advanced usage

Command line options

There are three executables in Yandex.Tank package: yandex-tank, yandex-tank-ab и yandex-tank-jmeter. Last two of them just use different king of load gen utilities, ab (Apache Benchmark) and jmeter (Apache JMeter), accordingly. Command line options are common for all three:

  • -h, --help - show command line options
  • -c CONFIG, --config=CONFIG - read options from INI file. It is possible to set multiple INI files by specifying the option serveral times. Default: ./load.conf
  • -i, --ignore-lock - ignore lock files
  • -f, --fail-lock - don't wait for lock file, quit if it's busy. The default behaviour is to wait for lock file to become free.
  • -l LOG, --log=LOG - main log file location. Default: ./tank.log
  • -n, --no-rc - don't read /etc/yandex-tank/*.ini and ~/.yandex-tank
  • -o OPTION, --option=OPTION - set an option from command line. Options set in cmd line override those have been set in configuration files. Multiple times for multiple options. Format: <section>.<option>=value Example: yandex-tank -o "console.short_only=1" --option="phantom.force_stepping=1"
  • -q, --quiet - only print WARNINGs and ERRORs to console
  • -v, --verbose - print ALL messages to console. Chatty mode

Add an ammo file name as a nameless parameter, e.g.: yandex-tank ammo.txt

Advanced configuration

Configuration files organized as standard INI files. Those are files partitioned into named sections that contain 'name=value' records. For example:

[phantom]
address=target-mulca.targetnets.yandex.ru:8080
rps_schedule=const(100,60s)

[autostop]
autostop=instances(80%,10)

A common rule: options with same name override those set before them (in the same file or not).

Default configuration files

If no --no-rc option passed, Yandex.Tank reads all *.ini from /etc/yandex-tank directory, then a personal config file ~/.yandex-tank. So you can easily put your favourite settings in ~/.yandex-tank, for example, tank.artifacts_base_dir, phantom.cache_dir, console.info_panel_width

The DEFAULT section

One can use a magic DEFAULT section, that contains global options. Those options are in charge for every section:

[autostop]
autostop=time(1,10)

[console]
short_only=1

[aggregator]
time_periods=10 20 30 100

[meta]
job_name=ask

is an equivalent for:

[DEFAULT]
autostop=time(1,10)
short_only=1
time_periods=10 20 30 100
job_name=ask

!!! Don't use global options wich have same name in different sections.

Multiline options

Use indent to show that a line is a continuation of a previous one:

[autostop]
autostop=time(1,10)
  http(404,1%,5s)
  net(xx,1,30)

Ask Yandex.Tank developers to add multiline capability for options where you need it!

Time units

Time units encoding is as following:

  • ms = millisecons
  • s = seconds
  • m = minutes
  • h = hours Default time unit is a millisecond. For example, 30000 == 30s

time(30000,120) is an equivalent to time(30s,2m) You can also mix them: 1h30m15s or 2s15ms

Artifacts

As a result Yandex.Tank produces some files (logs, results, configs etc). Those files are placed with care to the artifact directory. An option for that is artifacts_base_dir in the tank section. It is recommended to set it to a convinient place, for example, ~/yandex-tank-artifacts, it would be easier to manage the artifacts there.

Modules

Phantom

Load generator module that uses phantom utility.

Options

INI file section: [phantom]

Auto-stop

The Auto-stop module gets the data from the aggregator and passes them to the criteria-objects that decide if we should stop the test.

INI file section: [autostop]

Options
  • autostop - criteria list divided by spaces, in following format: type(parameters)

Available criteria types:

  • time - stop the test if average response time is higher then specified for as long as the time period specified. E.g.: time(1s500ms, 30s) time(50,15)
  • http - stop the test if the count of responses in last time period (specified) with HTTP codes fitting the mask is larger then the specified absolute or relative value. Examples: http(404,10,15) http(5xx, 10%, 1m)
  • net - like http, but for network codes. Use xx for all non-zero codes.
  • quantile - stop the test if the specified percentile is larger then specified level for as long as the time period specified. Available percentile values: 25, 50, 75, 80, 90, 95, 98, 99, 100. Example: quantile (95,100ms,10s)
  • instances - available when phantom module is included. Stop the test if instance count is larger then specified value. Example: instances(80%, 30) instances(50,1m)
  • total_time — like time, but accumulate for all time period (responses that fit may not be one-after-another, but only lay into specified time period). Example: total_time(300ms, 70%, 3s)
  • total_http — like http, but accumulated. See total_time. Example: total_http(5xx,10%,10s) total_http(3xx,40%,10s)
  • total_net — like net, but accumulated. See total_time. Example: total_net(79,10%,10s) total_net(11x,50%,15s)
  • negative_httphttp, inversed. Stop if there are not enough responses that fit the specified mask. Use to be shure that server responds 200. Example: negative_http(2xx,10%,10s)

Console on-line screen

Shows usefull information in console while running the test

INI file section: [console]

Options
  • short_only - show only one-line summary instead of full-screen (usefull for scripting), default: 0 (disable)
  • info_panel_width - relative right-panel width in percents, default: 33

Aggregator

The aggregator module is responsible for aggregation of data received from different kind of modules and transmitting that aggregated data to consumer modules (Console screen module is an example of such kind). INI file section: [aggregator]

options:
  • time_periods - time intervals list divided by zero. Default: 1ms 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 600 650 700 750 800 850 900 950 1s 1500 2s 2500 3s 3500 4s 4500 5s 5500 6s 6500 7s 7500 8s 8500 9s 9500 10s 11s

ShellExec

The ShellExec module executes the shell-scripts (hooks) on different stages of test, for example, you could start/stop some services just before/after the test. Every hook must return 0 as an exit code or the test is terminated. Hook's stdout will be written to DEBUG, stderr will be WARNINGs.

INI file section: [shellexec]

Options:
  • prepare - the script to run on prepare stage
  • start - the script to run on start stage
  • poll - the script to run every second while the test is running
  • end - the script to run on end stage
  • postprocess - the script to run on postprocess stage

JMeter

JMeter load generator module.

INI file section: [jmeter]

Options
  • !!mandatory option!! jmx - test plan file
  • args - JMeter command line parameters
  • jmeter_path - JMeter path, default: jmeter
Artifacts
  • _original_jmx.jmx> - original test plan file
  • modified_*.jmx - modified test plan with results output section
  • jmeter_*.jtl - JMeter results
  • jmeter_*.log - JMeter log

AB

Apache Benchmark load generator module. As the ab utility writes results to file only after the test is finished, Yandex.Tank is unable to show the on-line statistics for the tests with ab. The data are reviewed after the test.

INI file section: [ab]

Options
  • url - requested URL, default: http:**localhost/
  • requests - total request count, default: 100
  • concurrency - number of concurrent requests: 1
  • options - ab command line options
Artifacts
  • ab_*.log - request log with response times

Tips&Tricks

Shows tips and tricks in fullscreen console. If you have any tips&tricks, tell the developers about them

INI-file section: [tips]

Options
  • disable - disable tips and tricks, default: don't (0)

Load Server Configuration and Tunning

Firewall

Before test execution, please, check service availability. If service is running on server with IP x.x.x.x and listening for TCP port zz, try to connect to it with telnet like this: telnet x.x.x.x zz If everything OK, you'll see:

$ telnet 23.23.23.23 80
Trying 23.23.23.23...
Connected to 23.23.23.23.
Escape character is '^]'.

Otherwise if port is unreacheable:

$ telnet 8.8.8.8 80
Trying 8.8.8.8...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

(it's just an example, programs like nc/nmap/wget/curl could be used as well, but not ping!)

Routing

OK, service is reachable, next thing you should know is how far Yandex.Tank is located from the service you'd like to test. Heavy load can make switch to be unresponsible or to reboot, or at least it may lead to network losses, so the test results would be distorted. Be careful. Path estimation could be done by execution of tracepath command or it analogs (tracert/traceroute) on Yandex.Tank machine:

$ tracepath 23.23.23.24
 1:  tank.example.com (23.23.23.23)            0.084ms pmtu 1450
 1:  target.load.example.com (23.23.23.24)           20.919ms reached
 1:  target.example.com (23.23.23.24)            0.128ms reached
     Resume: pmtu 1450 hops 1 back 64

Hops count = 1 means that tank and target are in closest location.

$ tracepath 24.24.24.24
 1:  1.example.com (124.24.24.24)                 0.084ms pmtu 1450
 1:  2.example.com (24.124.24.24)          0.276ms 
 1:  3.example.com (24.24.124.24)          0.411ms 
 2:  4.example.com (24.24.24.124)                0.514ms 
 3:  5.example.com (241.24.24.24)              10.690ms 
 4:  6.example.com (24.241.24.24)                  0.831ms asymm  3 
 5:  7.example.com (24.24.241.24)                 0.512ms 
 6:  8.example.com (24.24.24.241)                 0.525ms asymm  5 
 7:  no reply

In this example you'd better find another closer located tank.

Tuning

To achieve the top most performance you should tune the source server system limits:

ulimit -n 30000

net.ipv4.tcp_max_tw_buckets = 65536
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 0
net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 131072
net.ipv4.tcp_syn_retries = 3
net.ipv4.tcp_synack_retries = 3
net.ipv4.tcp_retries1 = 3
net.ipv4.tcp_retries2 = 8
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 16384 174760 349520
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 16384 131072 262144
net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 262144 524288 1048576
net.ipv4.tcp_max_orphans = 65536
net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout = 10
net.ipv4.tcp_low_latency = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 0
