Locust: tasks are not shown in locust UI statistics

[habhilash]

Following is my locust file :
`
from locust import HttpLocust, TaskSet, task

import yaml
import os
import sys

sys.path.append(os.getcwd())

class EntitySearchLoadTask(TaskSet):

def on_start(self):
    self.login()


def login(self):
    with self.client.get("/application/auth?action=login", catch_response=True,
                        auth=('<username>', '<password>'), name='Login') as response:
        print "login"
        print "status : " + str(response.status_code)
        global headers
        headers = {}
        headers['Cookie'] = response.headers.get('Set-Cookie')
        headers['X-CSRF-TOKEN'] = response.cookies['X-CSRF-TOKEN']

        if response.status_code != 200:
            print "status : "
            print str(response.status_code)
            print "content : "
            print response.content
            response.failure("Controller Login API failed : " + response.content)

@task(1)
def sampleTask(self):
    global headers
    print "task"
    res = self.client.get("/application/restui/entity/search?searchText=tier 4", catch_response=True,
    headers = headers)
    print res.status_code
    print "content : "
    print res.json

class EntitySearchUserLocust(HttpLocust):
task_set = EntitySearchLoadTask
min_wait = 1000
max_wait = 5000
`

1. Now, I see on_start is getting executed ever user. I just want on_start to be executed once for all hatches. Is there any solution ?
2. I donot see @task decorated API ("/application/restui/entity/search?searchText=tier 4") in statistics in locust UI. Please refer to the attached screenshot. But @task is getting executed as per log. Only Login API is seen which is written in on_start(self) method.

Its little urgent. Can someone help me ?

At the first glance, the call you do in your task uses catch_response. This means you should mark the request either successful or failed which you don't. That's why it is not registered at all.

Probably too late, but may the answer may help somebody in the future.

@heyman, I think this one can be closed.
