multi-mechanize – web performance and load testing framework

January 11, 2011 by Brent Sordyl 0 Comments

Multi-Mechanize is an open source framework for web performance and load testing. It allows you to run simultaneous python scripts to generate load (synthetic transactions) against a web site or web service.
In your scripts, you have the convenience of mechanize along with the power of the full Python programming language at your disposal. You programmatically create test scripts to simulate virtual user activity. Your scripts will then generate HTTP requests to intelligently navigate a web site or send requests to a web service.
Multi-Mechanize uses a multi-process, multi-threaded engine to replay your scripts and generate concurrent virtual users.

django-lint – Statically check Django applications « code « lamby

September 30, 2010 by Brent Sordyl 0 Comments

Django Lint is a static analysis tool that checks (or “lints”) projects and applications that use the Django web development framework.

It reports on common programming errors and bad code smells, including checking for nullable CharField field types, the use of brittle or deprecated Django features (such as auto_now_add) as well as the absence of recommended options in settings.py. It aims to encourage the development of high-quality re-usable Django applications.

PyChecker: a python source code checking tool

September 30, 2010 by Brent Sordyl 0 Comments

PyChecker is a tool for finding bugs in python source code. It finds problems that are typically caught by a compiler for less dynamic languages, like C and C++. It is similar to lint. Because of the dynamic nature of python, some warnings may be incorrect; however, spurious warnings should be fairly infrequent.

September 30, 2010 by Brent Sordyl 0 Comments

analyzes Python source code looking for bugs and signs of poor quality.
Pylint is a python tool that checks if a module satisfies a coding standard. Pylint is similar to PyChecker but offers more features, like checking line-code’s length, checking if variable names are well-formed according to your coding standard, or checking if declared interfaces are truly implemented, and much more (see the complete check list).
