Support for websockets?

[abslodov]

Howdy,

I have an app I'd like to test out using Locust but it also requires my clients have open websockets as well - does anyone have an example for something similar? I've seen this #17 (comment), and http://docs.locust.io/en/latest/testing-other-systems.html but I'm hoping for a solid example if possible.

Thanks!

inexion : Can you please provide an example for websocket support?

@irshad-qb sure, so I have an app that simultaneously connects all clients to a websocket server as well as the normal app server - in this case it would be great to simultaneously test both servers since that would be an accurate test...

@inexion I asked since you closed the issue. I also actually need an example to test my webSocket server using locust. Could you provide me one ? I saw the custom client support and the eg for the same in doc. But I dint understand it correctly.

I m using locustio together with websocket-client library. it is working fine, but I still experiencing a few issue, for exemple if I restart my server , only a few part of the total client get reconnected, even if I added a call to self.on_start() in all exception cases.
