Eventing performance tests

Prerequisites:

Running tests

# Run Kafka broker tests using the upstream nightly artifacts
# in installation/manifests/upstream-nightly
make test-kafka-broker-upstream-nightly

# Run Kafka broker tests using the product nightly (Serverless Operator main)
# artifacts in installation/manifests/product-nightly
make test-kafka-broker-midstream-nightly

# Deploy requirements (Kafka, Serverless, Hyperfoil) from products and run a specific test
TEST_CASE=tests/broker/kafka/p10-r3-ord-b10-t10-64kb ./bin/run_midstream_nightly.sh

# Run a specific test using an existing Serverless or Knative installation
TEST_CASE=tests/broker/kafka/p10-r3-ord-b10-t10-64kb ./bin/run_test.sh

# Same as above, but skip deleting resources after the test for debugging purposes
export SKIP_DELETE_RESOURCES=true
TEST_CASE=tests/broker/kafka/p10-r3-ord-b10-t10-64kb ./bin/run_test.sh

# Run quick smoke test if requirements are already installed
export CONFIGURE_MACHINE=false
export SCALE_UP_DATAPLANE=false
export RECEIVER_DEPLOYMENT_REPLICAS=1
export SKIP_DELETE_RESOURCES=true
TEST_CASE=tests/broker/kafka/p10-r3-ord-b10-t10-64kb ./bin/run_test.sh

Interpreting test results

When tests are ran, these can be checked:

To get the Hyperfoil report, open the Hyperfoil UI in your browser. You may find the url as follows:

kubectl get hyperfoil -A
NAMESPACE   NAME                VERSION   ROUTE                                           PVC   STATUS
hyperfoil   hyperfoil-cluster   latest    hyperfoil-cluster-hyperfoil.foo.openshift.com         Ready

Hyperfoil provides a bunch of useful commands, but here are the most useful ones:

# Download a HTML report for the test run
[hyperfoil]$ report 0000

# Comparing runs:
[hyperfoil]$ compare 0001 0000
...

# Stats for a specific run:
[hyperfoil]$ stats 0000
Recent stats from run 0000

Verifying reliability

We essentially have 2 types of checks:

First type is the checks Hyperfoil itself does. These are the most fundamental checks around the response codes and request durations. The hf.yaml files in the repository have these defined:

sla:
  - meanResponseTime: 70s
  - limits:
      "0.999": 90s

Second type is the checks we implemented custom. We set up Hyperfoil to set a ce-benchmarktimestamp for the CloudEvent it is sending to the broker. The event is received by a Sacura through a trigger, and Sacura will compute the end-to-end latency for the event.

The latency is then scraped by a Prometheus instance, where we can query it and check if it is within the expected range.

The actual checking for if we satisfy the latency requirements is done by alerts. There are more alerts for verifying dispatcher/ingress throughput and pod stability (no crashes).

TODO: We don't fail the CI job when second type of checks mentioned above fail. We need solid mechanism that fails the CI job when there is an alert fired.

Generating Kafka Broker test cases

Existing test cases are generated using ./bin/generate-test-cases.sh script. You might find examples there.

./bin/kafka_broker_generator.py \
  --num-brokers 100 \
  --num-triggers 10 \
  --resources-output-dir tests/broker/kafka/p10-r3-ord-b100-t10/resources \
  --hf-output-dir tests/broker/kafka/p10-r3-ord-b100-t10 \
  --name-prefix broker-ord \
  --payload-file payloads/payload.68KB.txt \
  --delivery-order ordered \
  ...

Notes:

Running ad-hoc tests with RHOSAK

Set up some variables:

# example: hyperfoil-cluster-hyperfoil.apps.aliok-c027.serverless.foo.bar.com
HYPERFOIL_URL="HYPERFOIL_URL"

# make sure you create RHOSAK service account and give correct permissions to the user account:
# - consume from topic
# - produce to topic
# - create a topic
# - delete a topic
RHOSAK_USERNAME="YOUR_RHOSAK_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CLIENT_ID"
RHOSAK_PASSWORD="YOUR_RHOSAK_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CLIENT_SECRET"

# example: abcdef.foo.bar.kafka.rhcloud.com:443
RHOSAK_URL="YOUR_RHOSAK_BOOTSTRAP_SERVER_URL"

# create Hyperfoil with correct url:
