Install Python 3.7 or later, if you don’t already have it.

Pre-release builds¶
If you need the latest and greatest version of Locust and cannot wait for the next proper release, you can install a dev build like this:
$ pip3 install -U --pre locust
Pre-release builds are published every time a branch/PR is merged into master.
Install for development¶
