About Arriven/db1000n

Death by 1000 needles is a distributed load generation tool written in Go that enables users to conduct stress testing by fetching configuration from local or remote JSON files. The tool reads job specifications from these configs and executes them in parallel, allowing for coordinated load testing across multiple targets. It was created as a straightforward open-source alternative to existing load generation utilities, giving users additional options for their testing needs.

The project is designed to be simple and flexible, accepting JSON configurations that describe which load generation jobs should run concurrently. Users can point the tool at either local configuration files or remote sources, making it adaptable to various deployment scenarios. The tool is provided without guarantees and was initially developed during early 2022, with the author indicating they would continue updating both the codebase and documentation.
