ab是apache自带的压力测试工具。ab非常实用，它不仅可以对apache服务器进行网站访问压力测试，也可以对或其它类型的服务器进行压力测试。比如nginx、tomcat、IIS等。

一、Apache下载

Windows下载地址： http://www.apachehaus.com/cgi-bin/download.plx

根据系统版本选择

下载后，解压到C盘Apache 文件夹。

二、配置

修改Apache 端口：

如果是windows部署，多数情况下80端口已经被iis占用了，这时候需要修改conf/httpd.conf 找到listen 80 改为你要设置的端口，如: 8090。

三、Apache安装

以管理员身份运行cmd，命令行进入到Apache的bin目录，输入 httpd -k install 完成安装。

四、开始测试

在apache的bin目录下，cmd中输入：ab -n 1000 -c 1000 http://so.com/index
其中，-n 表示请求数，-c 表示并发数，index 为path，这是必要的，表示指定测试地址，不指定可能会报”ab: invalid url” 错误，可以实际测试一下。

其返回的结果集是有很多内容，我们选择关键的几个看看就大概知道我们的模块性能了
我比较关心的几个结果：
Concurrency Level: 1000
Time taken for tests: 1.190 seconds //处理1000个并发请求总共花了1.19秒
Complete requests: 1000 //完成处理的请求量
Failed requests: 0 //请求失败数
Write errors: 0
Non-2xx responses: 1000
Total transferred: 164000 bytes //总共传输了多少流量
HTML transferred: 0 bytes
Requests per second: 840.58 [#/sec] (mean) //平均一个请求花840.58毫秒 大家最关心的指标之一，相当于 LR 中的每秒事务数，后面括号中的 mean 表示这是一个平均值
Time per request: 1189.651 [ms] (mean) //大家最关心的指标之二，相当于 LR 中的平均事务响应时间，后面括号中的 mean 表示这是一个平均值
Time per request: 1.190 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests) //每个请求实际运行时间的平均值 ms是毫秒
Transfer rate: 134.62 [Kbytes/sec] received //传输速率 可以帮助排除是否存在网络流量过大导致响应时间延长的问题
