Developed JSON request body support and file-based JSON configuration for HTTP requests in the envoyproxy/nighthawk repository, enabling more realistic load testing scenarios. The work involved implementing a new RequestOptions.json_body field, ensuring its propagation through the RequestImpl and extending the Benchmark and StreamDecoder components to handle and encode full JSON payloads. Integration and unit tests were added to validate end-to-end JSON request handling and to support file-based input configurations. This feature was built using C++ and Python, leveraging skills in backend development, API design, and test automation to improve configuration flexibility and performance benchmarking within the Nighthawk tool.
February 2025: Delivered JSON Request Body Support and File-based JSON Config for HTTP Requests in Nighthawk. Implemented RequestOptions.json_body, ensured proper propagation through RequestImpl, extended Benchmark/StreamDecoder to encode and handle full JSON payloads, and added tests for file-based inputs. Updated test suite to reflect configuration changes and added an integration test to validate end-to-end JSON request handling. This work enables realistic load testing with JSON payloads and improves configuration flexibility.
