Goku — Rust-Powered HTTP Load Tester

Goku is a high-performance HTTP load testing tool built with Rust, designed for benchmarking and analyzing web services. It offers a comprehensive set of features to simulate and evaluate traffic efficiently: * Super-fast execution with minimal resource use * Highly scalable to thousands of concurrent connections * Real-time performance metrics and detailed analytics * Support for multi-step YAML-defined scenarios * Configurable rate limiting for precise traffic shaping Leveraging Rust's performance, Goku provides blazing-fast operations and can handle significant load with efficient asynchronous I/O. Users can define complex sequential scenarios to test multiple endpoints or workflows per test, injecting dynamic placeholders for realistic simulations. Detailed real-time metrics, including percentiles and mean response times, help engineers quickly identify performance bottlenecks. Goku also integrates with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling programmatic use from broader systems like language models or other MCP-aware clients. This allows for automated test triggering, metric gathering, and seamless integration into continuous delivery pipelines. Ideal for engineering teams, developers, and system administrators needing robust, scalable, and precise web service benchmarking and performance analysis.
