Locust is available on PyPI and can be installed through pip or easy_install
pip install locustio
or:
easy_install locustio
When Locust is installed, a locust command should be available in your shell (if you’re not using virtualenv - which you should - make sure your python script directory is on your path).
To see available options, run:
locust --help
If you intend to run Locust distributed across multiple processes/machines, we recommend you to also install pyzmq and gevent-zeromq:
pip install pyzmq gevent-zeromq
or:
easy_install pyzmq gevent-zeromq
The easiest way to get Locust running on Windows is to first install pre built binary packages for gevent (0.13) and greenlet and then follow the above instructions.
