kandi X-RAY | web-traffic-generator Summary
web-traffic-generator is a Python library typically used in Framework applications. web-traffic-generator has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. However web-traffic-generator build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.
Just a simple (poorly written) Python script that aimlessly "browses" the internet by starting at pre-defined ROOT_URLS and randomly "clicking" links on pages until the pre-defined MAX_DEPTH is met. I created this as a noise generator to use for an Incident Response / Network Defense simulation. The only issue is that my simulation environment uses multiple IDS/IPS/NGFW devices that will not pass and log simple TCPreplays of canned traffic. I needed the traffic to be as organic as possible, essentially mimicking real users browsing the web. Tested on Ubuntu 14.04 & 16.04 minimal, but should work on any system with Python installed.

Support
To get more deets on what is happening under the hood, change the Debug variable in config.py from False to True. This provides the following output... The last URL attempted provides a good example of when a particular URL throws an error. We simply add it to our config.blacklist array in memory, and continue browsing. This prevents a known bad URL from returning to the queue.
