Product Generator for WooCommerce

This is a sample product generator for WooCommerce, for use on development and testing sites. Its purpose is to provide an automated way of creating even very large sets of products, useful in providing a test environment for performance benchmarks and use case testing. The plugin generates products taking into account the following characteristics: Product Categories Product Tags Product Attributes SKUs Simple and Variable products with variations based on given attributes Stock management and stock numbers (some products will have these set, others won’t) Featured products (a minor subset will be marked as featured) Product images can be obtained from Unsplash or abstract images generated The plugin provides an administrative section WooCommerce > Product Generator where several aspects can be adjusted. During the Continuous AJAX Run, the cumulative product generation stats and performance are shown. The product generation stats and performance are also logged to the site’s debug.log. To disable, add this to your site’s wp-config.php: define( 'WPG_LOG', false ); With the stats provided, this plugin also provides an easy way to benchmark a site: providing an insight into the site’s performance measured by products generated per second. If you want to measure the performance of your site while generating products, make sure to disable the option Get images from Unsplash, as the impact of getting images via the network will be much higher than the product generation itself. Fork the Repository to customize the products generated as desired.

WPPerformanceTester

WPPerformanceTester was written as a tool to benchmark WordPress in the WordPress Hosting Performance Benchmarks (2015) by Review Signal. Current benchmarks are on WPHostingBenchmarks.com. It was designed to test the server’s performance by stressing PHP, MySql and running $wpdb queries. WPPerformanceTester performs the following tests Math – 100,000 math function tests String Manipulation – 100,000 string manipulation tests Loops – 1,000,000 loop iterations Conditionals – 1,000,000 conditional logic checks MySql (connect, select, version, aes_encrypt) – basic mysql functions and 5,000,000 AES_ENCRYPT() iterations \$wpdb – 250 insert, select, update and delete operations through \$wpdb It also allows you to see how your server’s performance stacks up against our industry benchmark. Our industry benchmark is the average of all submitted test results. Notes on Performance Performance can be measured in a lot of ways. WPPerformanceTester was simply one component of a much larger performance benchmark. It tests a single server (or node) that it is running on. So if you’re considering looking at the results from a clustered or distributed setup, it may give you limited insight into how well your whole system performs. WPPerformanceTester is about the raw speed a system has to execute code and perform database operations. Real website performance isn’t always correlated with raw speed. A seemingly slow website could have a very fast WPPerformanceTester result. There are lots of layers (namely caching) in making a WordPress website fast. A good caching layer will almost always outperform computing power. But when the caching layers are equal, raw speed can make a difference. WPPerformanceTester is simply one tool to add to your toolkit in measuring performance. You should have a variety of others to test other facets of performance. Known Issues If the script times out (max_execution_time limit) it will not show any results. You can solve this by increasing the max_execution_time in the php.ini. Some plugins may also cause WPPerformanceTester to run exceptionally slow and make it more likely to hit this limit. One such plugin is VersionPress. You can temporarily disable plugins that might be interfering with it as an alternative way to run it. Note: It’s always best to BACKUP EVERYTHING before running ANY new plugin or making changes to your WordPress install.
