MZBench is a generic load testing tool which uses bdl files to describe a load.

VMQ_MZBench is an extension (aka worker) to MZBench allowing you to load test an MQTT broker.

MZBench source code is too old to build on modern OS (Python 2 and other issues) and the official Docker image is too old to support VMQ_MZBench (don't ask me how I know)

An alternative Docker file works great. The incantation to run MZBench after the Docker container is built is docker run --network="host" -d -p 4800:4800 mzbench

The alternative docker file runs a listener on 0.0.0.0:4800 so point your brower to the load tester URL on port 4800 and you are good to go

You do not need to install VMQ_MZBench as it will be installed automatically by the bdl code.
