is there any new development plan for it? I found Gatling(by scala) project is active, is it possible engulf have more feature like gatling.

Unfortunately I don't have the time to maintain engulf anymore :(

Looks like this project needs a new maintainer perhaps, if someone will step up.

I came across this from a recommendation from a colleague. Nice tool. I know about Gatling but am primarily a JMeter user and so just for discussion purposes & tracking, relevant to the original post by zhiy:

engulf looks appealing except for a lack of support in certain areas, at least to my knowledge reading the docs & trying out the tool:

• sending HTTP headers and cookies
• sending HTTP POST/PUT request bodies (for content types of x-www-form-urlencoded, application/JSON, application/xml)
• response validation, more than just the HTTP status code, say validate the response body content, and/or response headers
• handling authenticated REST APIs (can be handled if the above items were supported)
• programmability/logic in the actual HTTP/REST call testing

Right now engulf kind of seems like a basic HTTP web server access log replay tool that you can farm/scale out the load with, that provides a web UI and configuration API.
