Re:Locust – Open-source Load Testing Tool on Tuesday January 05, 2021 @11:09PM (#25654576)
We've been successfully using locust for automated performance and load tests for a couple of years now. Locust is very flexible, the community is great and python-based test implementations are big win for engaging our quality engineers in test design and implementation.

Since our platform (Appian[0]) has a pretty heavy/complex client, we built a thin abstraction library [1] to empower both our quality engineers as well as some of our more advanced customers to write simple automated performance tests.

How do you structure your notes? I do the same, but I am often conflicted whether to take notes by chapter/section or by topic.

I have fond memories working on an interactive visualization on a MS Surface table using this data. Great to see TOL still being used!

I and many others spent basically all day there yesterday. It's fun to look through all of these manuals. It takes a lot of concentration picking out the unique copies and leaving the many copies behind. Especially HP.. arg so, so many revisions of the same manual.

Job Requirement: "You must be: Clever, competent and kind"

I wish more job descriptions were like this one. Straight and to the point, not much fluff or buzzword padding all over the place.

I've dealt with Godaddy and Dreamhost. I am trying to consolidate away from both.

I keep wondering whether they still have something up their sleeve, but judging by them dropping the price, its not the case. This is the pinnacle of Mark Shuttleworth's "convergence" dream, I wonder whether he will carry the rest of this campaign if it looks like it will not get funded in the end? Also if it does fail, it is going to look mighty bad for Canonical.
