I am familiarizing myself with performance tools and I found Taurus which seems great.
I'd like to run Gatling in Taurus which is possible with executors.

However during the test a text file should be used which contains dynamic data for the tests. Gatling can do that with its feeders but is there any support in Taurus when I use Gatling?
Or is there similar support for JMeter or Locust?

I only found the following mail thread but no solution at the end.

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Thanks,

Looking into JMeter Executor it supports CSV files via data-source section

data-sources: # list of external data sources
- path/to/my.csv  # this is a shorthand form
- path: path/to/another.csv  # this is full form, path option is required
  delimiter: ';'  # CSV delimiter, auto-detected by default
  quoted: false  # allow quoted data
  loop: true  # loop over in case of end-of-file reached if true, stop thread if false
  variable-names: id,name  # delimiter-separated list of variable names, empty by default

  • Thanks Dmitri! Does it mean that at the moment the JMeter executor is supported to use external file as data source? – Viktor May 29 '18 at 14:33
  • Yes and even more than one data source if needed – Dmitri T May 29 '18 at 14:35
  • Sorry Dmitri, I was lame and forgot to add the word 'only' in the question above... so the question is correctly: Does it mean that at the moment **only** the JMeter executor is supported to use external file as data source? No chance to use external file for Gatling or others? Thanks! – Viktor May 30 '18 at 09:01
