SSO on different site support

[lanphan]

Dear all,

I'd like to ask that can we use Locust to support sending request to 2 different hosts in the same task? Because we have SSO site separately, we need to have 2 requests in 1 task:

• send request to SSO site to get token (POST)
• based on that token to authenticate and request the main site (GET or POST)

I did use Locust to load testing 1 simple site quite easily, but for this case, I'm struggling ...

Hi!

You can make a request to a host other than the default one, simply by specifying the full URL. Something like this:

response = self.client.post("http://my-sso.host.com/login")
token = get_token_from_response(response)
self.client.post("/auth", {"token": token})

@lanphan Were you able to do it? I have the same task now. I have to open a website 'https://xxx.com'. It will use okta and automatically login with my credentials and then display all the applications I have access to. Then I have to select the application I need to test by clicking on the hyperlink which inturn redirects to another url https://yyy.com. Kindly let me know how you managed to automate this whole process using locust.

@heyman I tried your process, but I am getting error message "SSLError(MaxRetryError('HTTPSConnectionPool(host='xxx.com', port=11111): Max retries exceeded with url: /enterpriseLogin (Caused by SSLError(SSLError("bad handshake: Error([('SSL routines', 'tls_process_server_certificate', 'certificate verify failed')],)",),))',),). Please let me know if I am doing something wrong here.
