Running trustify load tests

The goal is to have load tests, which can be re-run over time to see the evolution of Trustify's performance.

Running it locally

After clone, run:

cp publish/baseline.json baseline/

Build the containers once:

podman compose -f compose.yaml build

Then run the test:

podman compose -f compose.yaml run loadtests

After the test has run, clean up:

podman compose -f compose.yaml down

Some of the large files are cached in a volume, it is possible to delete those volumes as well using:

podman compose -f compose.yaml down -v

Wait, there is more

Start a DB instance with an imported dump

To start up a database instance with the imported dump, run the following commands:

podman compose -f compose.yaml build
podman compose -f compose.yaml up trustify-migrate

Connect a psql terminal to the database

podman compose -f compose.yaml build
podman compose -f compose.yaml up db-shell

Excluding Bad Reports

1. Add filename to publish/excluded-reports.txt:
   report-2024-09-03T07-38-09.json # Wrong configuration - invalid dump
2. Run ./generate-manifest.sh to regenerate the manifest
3. Open a PR to push the changes

Add a marker on the chart

You can add marker on the chart, marking important events on the scale test, like switching to a newer dump.

1. Add an entry to publish/markers.json
2. Run ./generate-manifest.sh to regenerate the manifest
3. Open a PR to push the changes

Test changes to the dashboard locally

1. Make changes to the dashboard
2. Run ./generate-manifest.sh to regenerate the manifest
3. Run a local webserver using (one of the following):
