PHANTOM

Type of test data for the Phantom load generator. It allows sending any combinations of HTTP requests based on any methods to the server as is. With this format, you can make complex combinations of requests. It is well suited for generating requests from service logs, but not for manual configuration.

The test data type is specified when creating a test.

Data format:

<byte_length_1> <tag_1>\r\n
<request_headers_1>\r\n
<request_body_1>\r\n
<byte_length_2> <tag_2>\r\n
<request_headers_2>\r\n
<request_body_2>\r\n
...
<byte_length_N> <tag_N>\r\n
<request_headers_N>\r\n
<request_body_N>\r\n

Where:

• byte_length: Request body length in bytes (not in characters).
• request_headers: Request headers.
• request_body: Request body.
• \r\n: Newline characters required after the request body.

Examples of test data:

• GET requests:

  73 good
  GET / HTTP/1.0
  Host: xxx.tanks.example.com
  User-Agent: xxx (shell 1)
  
  77 bad
  GET /abra HTTP/1.0
  Host: xxx.tanks.example.com
  User-Agent: xxx (shell 1)
  
  78 unknown
  GET /ab ra HTTP/1.0
  Host: xxx.tanks.example.com
  User-Agent: xxx (shell 1)
  

• POST requests (binary data):
