Performance testing with locust

This repo holds a locust configuration file to test Vikunja's performance.

First, you'll need a running Vikunja instance. Ours will be at http://localhost:8080.

Before you can start testing, you need to create the nessecary users. To do so, run

~$ ./create_users.sh

This will create 100 users on the local instance (feel free to change the url).

Once this is complete, you can run the locustfile:

~$ locust --host=http://localhost:8080/api/v1 -f locust_file.py

Then head over to the url it shows you (usually something like http://localhost:8089) and start the test.
