Hello,

I would like to know if it’s possible with RF to run tests many times at the same time ?  
For example, I would like to run login tests 20 times to verify if the system can support multiple connections?  
I don’t find an existing solution but perhaps there is another tip?

Thanks !

You should try to integrate [https://locust.io/](https://locust.io/) or [https://gettaurus.org/](https://gettaurus.org/).

Then if you make a useful library for RF, please share with the community. Thanks!

You could try RequestsLibrary for api login, data driver as source of credentials for a data driven test and pabot to parallelize requests

Here you can find an example

But doesn’t really give you metrics for performance besides requests per time.

I didn’t reply here earlier as John seems to have already found [rfswarm](https://github.com/damies13/rfswarm/blob/master/README.md) which is a tool designed exactly for what he wants to do.

But I guess this post might be useful for anyone else who comes across this thread.

Dave.
