loadtest: Run with a custom HTTP header.
$ loadtest --headers "${accept:text-plain;text-html}" ${https:--example-com}
try on your machine
This command is likely used in a load testing scenario and is composed of several elements:
loadtest
: This is the name of the command or script used to initiate a load test.--headers "${accept:text-plain;text-html}"
: This parameter allows you to specify custom headers to be sent along with the load testing requests. In this particular case, the custom header is specified using the format:"${headerName1:headerValue1;headerName2:headerValue2}"
. The headers being set in this example are "accept:text-plain" and "accept:text-html", indicating that the client expects the server to respond with either plain text or HTML content.${https:--example-com}
: This parameter specifies the target URL for the load testing. It is the address of the website or API endpoint being tested. In this case, it seems to be the URL "https://example.com". The${}
syntax suggests that the value of this parameter might be dynamically passed or substituted from a variable or configuration file.
Overall, this command initiates a load test with custom headers to a specific URL, with the intention of testing the performance and behavior of the server under load.
