Add password parameter for the loadtestrunner

Hello,

I'm using the latest version from RedayAPI (3.0.0) and my project is password protected - the properties are encrypted. When I want to run functional tests in pipeline, I can give the password over the command-line parameter -p but this parameter doesn't exists for the loadtestrunner.

 

This fact is not an error but a missing function. Without this feature, encoding the properties in a project is a major drawback when you want to automate the load test because I must deactivate the passwort protection to run the loadtestrunner. This is a strong security restriction, especially if you want to protect the passwords/token/secrets used in cloud repositories.

A lot of services are provided in the cload nowadays and the trend is increasing, besides the reason I ask the reader to vote for the function to introduce the password parameter for the loadtestrunner as well.

 

Thanks in advance for the votes.

 

Greetings, Giovanni

    There is an existing feature request for this (internal ID: RIA-14500)
