A Test Harness to Verify Traffic Router Performance
summary
A Go rewrite of an internal Perl tool becomes the Traffic Router Test Harness that generates high-volume requests against Traffic Router using Traffic Ops credentials, verifies thresholds and reports 8877 requests per second on IPv4 with higher latency on IPv6, and shows failures when thread counts are pushed too high. It supports coverage-zone and max mind geolocation, accepts an x-mm-client-ip header to force client location, and lets operators vary path count and max path length to measure real routing cost.
