[dolohow]

This would be a really nice feature.

no explanation and nothing to do here... closing.

Swagger is a framework for APIs. It has ability to export APIs endpoints with arguments that particular endpoint can accept. Locust could import this json/yaml file and automatically generate all endpoints to test. The user could further apply weight and other properties

Whole specification can be found here.

Example:

/pets:
  get:
    description: Returns all pets from the system that the user has access to
    produces:
    - application/json
    responses:
      '200':
        description: A list of pets.
        schema:
          type: array
          items:
            $ref: '#/definitions/pet

@dolohow there is a project that uses swagger files to generarate locust tasks. It can handle only GET-endpoints, but you're welcome to contribute - https://github.com/lieldulev/swagger-to-locustfile
