====== Stress Test Script ======
These two bash scripts make an easy stress tester for your webserver or to test your DoS capabilities.

First one is simply curl making a lot requests in a linear fashion, one after the other.
 
<code>
#!/bin/bash

# Set the URL of the website to test
url="https://www.example.com"

# Set the number of requests to send
num_requests=1000

# Send the requests
for i in $(seq 1 $num_requests); do
  curl $url
done
</code>


The second one runs it concurrently. You specify how many concurrent curl loops you want to run and then it goes through each URI the specified number of times.

<code>
#!/bin/bash

# Set the URLs of the websites to test
urls=("https://www.example1.com" "https://www.example2.com" "https://www.example3.com")

# Set the number of requests to send
num_requests=1000

# Set the number of concurrent requests
concurrent_requests=100

# Send the requests
for url in ${urls[@]}; do
  for i in $(seq 1 $num_requests); do
    curl $url &
    # Limit the number of concurrent requests
    if [[ $(jobs -r -p | wc -l) -gt $concurrent_requests ]]; then
      wait
    fi
  done
done
</code>
