Installation and set up

Dependencies

• Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 or 3.11 and pip
• JDK 11
• Google Chrome web browser
• Git client (only for Bitbucket DC)

Please make sure you have a version of Chrome browser that is compatible with ChromeDriver version set in app/$product.yml file (modules->selenium->chromedriver->version).

If a first part of ChromeDriver version does not match with a first part of your Chrome browser version, update Chrome browser or set compatible ChromeDriver version in .yml file.

macOS setup

Make sure that you have:

• Python (see dependencies section for supported versions)
• pip
• JDK 11 installed
• XCode Command Line Tools
• Google Chrome web browser

python3 --version
pip --version
java -version
# command to check if XCode Command Line Tools installed
xcode-select --print-path
# or command to install if XCode Command Line Tools
xcode-select --install

For Bitbucket DC check that Git is installed:

git --version

We recommend using virtualenv for Taurus.

1. Install virtualenv with pip:

pip install virtualenv

2. Create new virtual env with python3:

virtualenv venv -p full_path_to_python # e.g. use `which python3.11` to find the path

3. Activate virtual env:

source venv/bin/activate

4. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Linux setup

Make sure that you have:

• Python (see dependencies section for supported versions)
• pip
• JDK 11 installed
• Python developer package (e.g. python3.9-dev package for Python3.9)
• Google Chrome web browser

python3 --version
pip --version
java -version

For Bitbucket DC check that Git is installed:

git --version

We recommend using virtualenv for Taurus. See example setup below.

5. Click Install.

Setup Windows 10 SDK

We recommend using virtualenv for Taurus.

1. Install virtualenv with pip:

pip install virtualenv

2. Create new virtual env with python3:

virtualenv venv -p full_path_to_python # e.g. use `where python` to find the path to correct python

3. Activate virtual env:

venv\Scripts\activate

4. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Upgrading the toolkit

Analytics

The Data Center App Performance Toolkit includes some simple usage analytics.
We collect this data to better understand how the community is using the Performance Toolkit, and to help us plan our roadmap. When a performance tests is completed we send one HTTP POST request with analytics.

The request include the following data, and will in no way contain PII (Personally Identifiable Information).

• application under test (Jira/Confluence/Bitbucket)
• timestamp of performance toolkit run
• performance toolkit version
• operating system
• concurrency and test_duration from $product.yml file
• actual run duration
• executed action names and success rates
• unique user identifier (non PII)

To help us continue improving the Toolkit, we’d love you to keep these analytics enabled in testing, staging, and production. If you don’t want to send us analytics, you can turn off the allow_analytics toggle in $product.yml file.
