Display current testscript used

[tyge68]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently when we start locust ui , there are no hints on the page to find out what will be executed exactly.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice to at least display the current testscript filename that was used to start the command a.k.a -f option value.
If not at least the list of tasks that are going to be executed would be also nice to have.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I have no idea of any possible alternative.

Additional context

Distributed installation with many worker machines and a dedicated master running with UI.

Good idea! Shouldnt be too difficult to do either. Maybe have a go att doing it yourself?

[tyge68]

@cyberw not sure how that could be done by myself unfortunately. I guess more experienced person on this project could add this quicker.

[cyberw]

I’m sure it would be quicker, but it is unlikely to happen. Particularly the UI is ”you want it, you build it”, as I dont use it myself :)

[tyge68]

is there information how to build locust locally ? or can we simply do pip install . maybe ? not sure, I am not really expert in this area :(

[cyberw]

Clone the repo from github, cd into the folder and run
pip3 install -e .
