一、背景
ab 全称为:apache bench,ab 为小型压力工具,对于在 Linux 中简单压测 HTTP 接口轻巧灵活。
在官网上的解释如下:
ab是Apache超文本传输协议(HTTP)的性能测试工具。其设计意图是描绘当前所安装的Apache的执行性能,主要是显示你安装的Apache每秒可以处理多少个请求。
apache官网:http://httpd.apache.org/
二、快速安装
这里以 CentOS 7.X 系统为例:
yum -y install httpd-tools
三、快速使用
查看版本:
[root@7dgroup2 ~]# ab -V

[root@7dgroup2 ~]# ab help
ab: invalid URL
Usage: ab [options] [http[s]://]hostname[:port]/path
Options are:
-n requests Number of requests to perform
-c concurrency Number of multiple requests to make at a time
-t timelimit Seconds to max. to spend on benchmarking
This implies -n 50000
-s timeout Seconds to max. wait for each response
Default is 30 seconds
-b windowsize Size of TCP send/receive buffer, in bytes
-B address Address to bind to when making outgoing connections
-p postfile File containing data to POST. Remember also to set -T
-u putfile File containing data to PUT. Remember also to set -T
-T content-type Content-type header to use for POST/PUT data, eg.
'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
Default is 'text/plain'
-v verbosity How much troubleshooting info to print
-w Print out results in HTML tables
-i Use HEAD instead of GET
-x attributes String to insert as table attributes
-y attributes String to insert as tr attributes
-z attributes String to insert as td or th attributes
-C attribute Add cookie, eg. 'Apache=1234'. (repeatable)
-H attribute Add Arbitrary header line, eg. 'Accept-Encoding: gzip'
Inserted after all normal header lines. (repeatable)
-A attribute Add Basic WWW Authentication, the attributes
are a colon separated username and password.
-P attribute Add Basic Proxy Authentication, the attributes
are a colon separated username and password.
-X proxy:port Proxyserver and port number to use
-V Print version number and exit
-k Use HTTP KeepAlive feature
-d Do not show percentiles served table.
-S Do not show confidence estimators and warnings.
-q Do not show progress when doing more than 150 requests
-g filename Output collected data to gnuplot format file.
-e filename Output CSV file with percentages served
-r Don't exit on socket receive errors.
-h Display usage information (this message)
-Z ciphersuite Specify SSL/TLS cipher suite (See openssl ciphers)
-f protocol Specify SSL/TLS protocol
(SSL3, TLS1, TLS1.1, TLS1.2 or ALL)
[root@7dgroup2 ~]#
- -n:在测试会话中所执行的请求个数。默认时,仅执行一个请求。
- -c:一次产生的请求个数。默认是一次一个。
- -t:测试所进行的最大秒数。其内部隐含值是 -n 50000,它可以使对服务器的测试限制在一个固定的总时间以内。默认时,没有时间限制。
快速上手:

Benchmarking 172.17.211.142 (be patient).....done
Server Software: #服务器软件
Server Hostname: 172.17.211.142 #域名
Server Port: 8089 #请求端口号
Document Path: / #文件路径
Document Length: 76443 bytes #页面字节数
# 这段展示了压力测试的几个重要指标
Concurrency Level: 10 #请求的并发数
Time taken for tests: 0.064 seconds #总访问时间
Complete requests: 10 #请求成功数量
Failed requests: 0 #请求失败数量
Write errors: 0
Total transferred: 766030 bytes #请求总数据大小(包括header头信息)
HTML transferred: 764430 bytes #html页面实际总字节数
Requests per second: 157.09 [#/sec] (mean) #每秒多少请求,服务器的吞吐量,后面括号中的 mean 表示这是一个平均值
Time per request: 63.656 [ms] (mean) #用户平均请求等待时间
Time per request: 6.366 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests) # 服务器平均处理时间,也就是服务器吞吐量的倒数
Transfer rate: 11751.86 [Kbytes/sec] received #每秒获取的数据长度
Connection Times (ms)
min mean[+/-sd] median max
Connect: 0 0 0.0 0 0 #网络链接
Processing: 8 36 17.1 41 60 #系统处理
Waiting: 3 24 18.7 18 55 #等待
Total: 9 37 17.1 42 60
# Total 并不等于前三行数据相加,因为前三行的数据并不是在同一个请求中采集到的,
#可能某个请求的网络延迟最短,但是系统处理时间又是最长的呢。
#所以 Tota l是从整个请求所需要的时间的角度来统计的。
# 这段是每个请求处理时间的分布情况,50 %的处理时间在4 2 ms内,66 %的处理时间在 45 ms内...,重要的是看 90 %的处理时间。
Percentage of the requests served within a certain time (ms)
50% 42
66% 45
75% 51
80% 52
90% 60
95% 60
98% 60
99% 60
100% 60 (longest request)
四、关于登录的问题
有时候进行压力测试需要用户登录,怎么办?
请参考以下步骤:
- 先用账户和密码登录后,用开发者工具找到标识这个会话的 Cookie值(Session ID)记下来
如果只用到一个Cookie,那么只需键入命令:
ab -n 100 -C key=value http://test.com/
如果需要多个 Cookie,就直接设 Header:
ab -n 100 -H “Cookie: Key1=Value1; Key2=Value2” http://test.com/
五、总结
总的来说 ab 工具小巧简单,上手学习较快,可以提供需要的基本性能指标,但是没有图形化结果,不能监控。因此 ab 工具可以用作临时和简单测试。
同类型的压力测试工具还有:webbench、siege、http_load 等
