This is the replacement for https://github.com/tarekziade/boom

Salvo is a simple command line tool to send some load to an HTTP(S) endpoint.

Salvo is a script you can use to quickly smoke-test your web app deployment. If you need a more complex tool, I'd suggest looking at Molotov <http://molotov.readthedocs.io>_

Salvo was specifically written to replace my Apache Bench (ab) usage. Salvo is based on Molotov, which uses Python 3 asyncio & aiohttp.

Installation

Salvo requires Python 3.6+ and Molotov, which gets installed as a dependency.

Just do::
