Benchmark Factory for Database 7.6 - User Guide

Getting Started Overview of Benchmark Factory Benchmark Factory Components Agents Connections Create and Edit Tests and Jobs Test Results and Run Reports Troubleshooting Licensing REST API

REST API

Benchmark Factory provides a REST API that can be used to create and run Standard Benchmark tests without the need to interact with the Benchmark Factory Console (user interface). Use a script, command-line tool, or custom application to interface with Benchmark Factory and to automate your load testing tasks.

URI Structure

The URIs for the Benchmark Factory REST API have the following basic structure:

http://{server}:{port}/api/{resource}

{server} is the Benchmark Factory server, {port} is the port number, and {resource} is the name of the resource.

Example

http://bmfserver:30100/api/jobs

Object Structure

The following represents the object structure for the resources in the REST API.

  • Jobs
    • Job
