[Hawkular-dev] Web test fixture

[Viet Nguyen]

I'm pleased to announce first version of the Web Test Fixture is up and running.  It's a web server (nginx) running inside Docker that can simulate a specific HTTP response code as well simple cron-like availability.  

Please let me know whether this is useful for Hawkular URL monitoring and what you want to see next. For example, a. simulate slow response time, b. cycle between http status codes, etc.

Example usage:

[1] Launch a web fixture
docker run -d -p 8999:8080 hawkularqe/web-fixture

# get custom http code (replace 503 with any valid status code)
curl -I http://localhost:8999/http?return=503
--> HTTP/1.1 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable

[2] Launch a mostly-available fixture - server goes offline for 10 seconds every minute
docker run -p 8999:8080 -e "DURATION=50s" -e "CRON_EXP=* * * * *" hawkularqe/web-fixture


[1] and [2] in the example above are also running on public OS1:
1. http://209.132.179.82:50001
2. http://209.132.179.82:50002
