# Goose: A Powerful Load Testing Framework | ||
|
||
Have you ever been attacked by a goose? | ||
## What is Load Testing? | ||
Load testing is a critical step in ensuring your web application can handle real-world traffic patterns. It helps you identify performance bottlenecks, optimize resource allocation, and ensure a seamless user experience. | ||

## Why Choose Goose? | ||
|
||
## A Powerful Load Testing Framework | ||
* Fast and Scalable: Built with [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/), Goose is designed for speed and scalability. | ||
|
||
Goose is a highly efficient load testing tool crafted in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/), designed to simulate users interacting with web applications. Whether you're testing a simple website or an intricate application, Goose provides a flexible and scalable solution to ensure your system can handle real-world traffic patterns. | ||
* Flexible and Customizable: Supports simple and complex load tests, tailored to mimic real-world user behavior. | ||
|
||
## Why Choose Goose? | ||
* Realistic User Behavior Simulation: Goes beyond just sending requests; simulates user behaviors like logging in, filling out forms, and navigating through your application. | ||
|
||
* Performance: Built with Rust, Goose is designed for speed and scalability, allowing you to simulate a large number of users with minimal resource overhead. | ||
* Have you ever been attacked by a goose? | ||
|
||
* Flexibility: Goose supports both simple and complex load tests, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. With its extensive set of options, you can tailor your tests to closely mimic real-world user behavior. | ||
## Getting Started | ||
To use Goose, you'll need to write a Rust application using the Goose library. Then, compile it to create a tailored load testing tool specific to your needs. | ||
|
||
* Real-world Testing: Goose goes beyond just sending requests; it can simulate user behaviors like logging in, filling out forms, and navigating through your application, providing a more realistic load test scenario. | ||

||
## Getting Started | ||
* [**Developer Documentation**](https://docs.rs/goose/) Detailed API information and tutorials. | ||
|
||
It is essential to understand that Goose is not a pre-compiled application but a library. This means you can't simply run Goose to load test a website. Instead, you'll need to write your own Rust application using the Goose library, then compile it to create a tailored load testing tool specific to your needs. Dive into [The Goose Book](https://book.goose.rs/) for a comprehensive guide or check the [developer documentation](https://docs.rs/goose/) for detailed API information. | ||
## Simple Example | ||
|
||
Check out our [examples](https://github.com/tag1consulting/goose/tree/main/examples) on GitHub. | ||
You can also use [Goose Eggs](https://github.com/tag1consulting/goose-eggs), a helper crate that provides useful functions for writing load tests, such as validation helpers for HTTP responses. | ||
