Apache Benchmark (`ab`) is included with the Apache HTTP server package. To install `ab`, you can install the Apache package itself, which typically includes the `ab` tool along with the Apache server.

For Ubuntu or Debian-based systems, you can install Apache's `ab` tool by following these steps:

Step 1: Update Package Lists

Open the terminal and update the package lists to ensure you're installing the latest versions available:

sudo apt update

Step 2: Install Apache2 Utils Package

Use `apt` to install the Apache2 Utils package, which includes the `ab` tool:

sudo apt install apache2-utils

Step 3: Verify Installation

After the installation is complete, verify the installation of `ab` by running the following command:

ab -V

This command should display the version of `ab` installed on your system, confirming that the installation was successful.

Your First Test 

ab -n 1000 -c 10 -s 60 http://example.com/your_endpoint

• -n 1000: Specifies the number of requests to perform.
• -c 10: Defines the concurrency level (number of multiple requests to perform at a time).
• -s 60: Sets the timeout to 60 seconds. Adjust this value according to your requirements.

Your Result Should be

ebluedipu@ebluedipu-H81:~$ ab -n 100 -c 10 -s 60 https://college.ebluesys.com/app/registration
