Re: How to test HAProxy ?

[Kobus Bensch]

Well, I would suggest you install haproxy and point it at some backend 
servers and be creative. Stop start the servers, break what you want it 
to load alance and see what the result is. Do this on 1 backend then the 
other then both. Add another node, take one out. Standard load balancing 
testing practice.

Hi

I'm involved in testing the port of HAProxy 1.4 (.24) on Ubuntu on PPC/LE.
For now, I've found nothing about how to check that the basic features 
and the important features of HAProxy do work fine in this environment.

  The "README" file says nothing about testing.
  The "Makefile" file provides no "test" or "tests" entry.
  The "examples" directory does not contain explanations and 
instructions for testing.
  The "tests" directory does not contain explanations and instructions 
for testing.
I do not have time to get skills about HAProxy or about any tool that 
makes use of HAProxy. I simply need to get configuration and test 
instructions.


What do you suggest/recommend me to do for testing the most important 
features of HAProxy, in 1 week, knowing that I know nothing about 
HAProxy ?


Thanks

Tony
