Type of test data used for describing HTTP POST requests. Used in Pandora and Phantom load generators.
The test data type is specified when creating a test.
Test data starts with request headers in square brackets. Next, the request body size in bytes and the request URI separated by a space are specified on a new line. For example:
[Host: example.com]
[User-Agent: Tank]
5 /route/?rll=50.262025%2C53.276083~50.056015%2C53.495561&origin=1&simplify=1
class
6 /route/?rll=50.262025%2C53.276083~50.056015%2C53.495561&origin=1&simplify=1
hello!
7 /route/?rll=37.565147%2C55.695758~37.412796%2C55.691454&origin=1&simplify=1

Configuring load generators
Phantom
Pandora
When configuring the Phantom load generator using a YAML file, specify the uripost type and the path to the file with request headers and endpoints:
phantom:
ammo_type: uripost # Required, otherwise the load testing tool won't be able to distinguish it from uri-style.
ammofile: ./ammo.txt # or HTTP link
When configuring the Pandora load generator using a file, specify the uripost type in the ammo section:
config_content:
pools:
ammo:
type: uripost
file: ./ammo.uripost
When uploading a file with test data via the management console, data types and paths are filled in automatically.
