SYNOPSIS
mysql-stress-test.pl [options]
DESCRIPTION
The mysql-stress-test.pl Perl script performs stress-testing of the
MySQL server. (MySQL 5.0 and up only)
mysql-stress-test.pl requires a version of Perl that has been built

Causes the program to abort if an error with severity less than or
equal to N was encountered. Set to 1 to abort on any error.
o --check-tests-file
Periodically check the file that lists the tests to be run. If it
has been modified, reread the file. This can be useful if you
update the list of tests to be run during a stress test.
o --cleanup
Force cleanup of the working directory.
o --log-error-details
Log error details in the global error log file.
o --loop-count=N
In sequential test mode, the number of loops to execute before
exiting.

session logs will be stored. Usually this is the shared directory
that is associated with the server used for testing.

The TCP/IP port number to use for connecting to the server. The
default is 3306.

o --sleep-time=N

o --stress-basedir=path
This option is required. path is the working directory for the

during testing.
o --stress-datadir=path

--stress-suite-basedir option.
o --stress-init-file[=path]
file_name is the location of the file that contains the list of
tests to be run once to initialize the database for the testing. If
missing, the default file is stress_init.txt in the test suite

o --stress-mode=mode
This option indicates the test order in stress-test mode. The mode
value is either random to select tests in random order or seq to
run tests in each thread in the order specified in the test list
file. The default mode is random.
o --stress-suite-basedir=path
This option is required. path is the directory that has the t and
r subdirectories containing the test case and result files. This
