unit testing - Generic Performance Test Framework? -

we want set framework automate performance test executions of linux-based client/server application.

the current workflow is:

1. prepare test environment, start application. 2. start monitoring tools 3. start load generators given scenario 4. store info recorded monitoring tools 5. produce html reports 6. shutdown application 7. go 1, run next test scenario

we have scripts each of tasks above. our obvious next step write master script glue , add together features scheduled runs , like.

but, before going ahead , reinventing wheel, thought should ask: aware of generic framework out there used in context?

some people suggest utilize ci tool jenkins, seems bit of overkill job.

jenkins great kind of tasks because can spawn jobs on remote servers while monitoring progress of whole process.

it simple install , manage, and... it's free.
