# Goose
# Goose: A Powerful Load Testing Framework

Have you ever been attacked by a goose?
## What is Load Testing?
Load testing is a critical step in ensuring your web application can handle real-world traffic patterns. It helps you identify performance bottlenecks, optimize resource allocation, and ensure a seamless user experience.

## Why Choose Goose?

## A Powerful Load Testing Framework
* Fast and Scalable: Built with [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/), Goose is designed for speed and scalability.

Goose is a highly efficient load testing tool crafted in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/), designed to simulate users interacting with web applications. Whether you're testing a simple website or an intricate application, Goose provides a flexible and scalable solution to ensure your system can handle real-world traffic patterns.
* Flexible and Customizable: Supports simple and complex load tests, tailored to mimic real-world user behavior.

## Why Choose Goose?
* Realistic User Behavior Simulation: Goes beyond just sending requests; simulates user behaviors like logging in, filling out forms, and navigating through your application.

* Performance: Built with Rust, Goose is designed for speed and scalability, allowing you to simulate a large number of users with minimal resource overhead.
* Have you ever been attacked by a goose?

* Flexibility: Goose supports both simple and complex load tests, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. With its extensive set of options, you can tailor your tests to closely mimic real-world user behavior.
## Getting Started
To use Goose, you'll need to write a Rust application using the Goose library. Then, compile it to create a tailored load testing tool specific to your needs.

* Real-world Testing: Goose goes beyond just sending requests; it can simulate user behaviors like logging in, filling out forms, and navigating through your application, providing a more realistic load test scenario.
You may find the following resources helpful:

* Community and Support: Developed by [Tag1 Consulting](https://tag1.com/), Goose has a growing community and a series of [blog posts and podcasts](https://www.tag1.com/goose/) detailing its features, comparisons with other tools, and real-life testing scenarios.
* [**The Goose Book**](https://book.goose.rs/) A comprehensive guide to getting started with Goose.

## Getting Started
* [**Developer Documentation**](https://docs.rs/goose/) Detailed API information and tutorials.

It is essential to understand that Goose is not a pre-compiled application but a library. This means you can't simply run Goose to load test a website. Instead, you'll need to write your own Rust application using the Goose library, then compile it to create a tailored load testing tool specific to your needs. Dive into [The Goose Book](https://book.goose.rs/) for a comprehensive guide or check the [developer documentation](https://docs.rs/goose/) for detailed API information.
## Simple Example

Check out our [examples](https://github.com/tag1consulting/goose/tree/main/examples) on GitHub.
You can also use [Goose Eggs](https://github.com/tag1consulting/goose-eggs), a helper crate that provides useful functions for writing load tests, such as validation helpers for HTTP responses.
