Boomer is a Go library that acts as a high-performance load generator for Locust, spawning thousands of goroutines to run test code concurrently. It automatically connects to and reports results to a Locust master, whose web UI displays the test results.

Use cases

  • run locust load tests written in go
  • generate high-concurrency load with goroutines
  • distribute load generation across locust workers
  • load test an api at scale
  • replace python locust workers with faster go workers

When to choose

  • you already use locust and want go-based workers for higher throughput
  • you need thousands of concurrent virtual users without python's gil limits
  • you want results aggregated in locust's existing web ui

When to avoid

  • you need a standalone benchmarking tool rather than a locust-integrated library
  • your team writes load tests only in python
  • you don't already run a locust master
