v1.3 - Latency & Performance

On this update:

• Optimized Retry: Increased the number of retries before declaring a ping as failed.
• Optimized Intervals: Introduced randomized intervals to simulate more realistic traffic patterns. This can make the test less predictable and might increase success rates in certain environments.
• Introduce: /auto to simulate your own LOCALIP realistic traffic packages auto-regenerative(?). This can give to you 99.9% success rates and delay your own network. Use carefully.

v1.2 - Commands & Ports

On this update:

• Command Handling: Users can now interact with the system using new commands: /help, /clear and /exit.
• Enhanced User Input Handling: Input validation has been improved for better error handling of invalid IP addresses or domain names.
• Port Specification Option: Users can now choose to specify a port when entering an IP address. This option allows for more flexible testing, especially when targeting specific services running on non-standard ports. (Don't work for PING tests, only HTTP).

v1.1 - Information is everything

On this update:

• Cancel a Test: Users can now cancel the test type selection by pressing c and return to the IP/domain entry prompt. This provides greater control over the test execution.
• Location Info: After confirming that an IP is reachable, additional information about the location of the IP is fetched and displayed to the user.
• Disable Spacebar: The spacebar stop functionality has been improved. Now, the spacebar is disabled when no tests (PING or HTTP) is running, preventing accidental stops.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed issue with invalid domain format detection: The program now correctly identifies and rejects invalid domain names when entered during the IP/domain prompt.

v1.0

On this update:

This release introduces the Stress Testing Bot. The main focus of this update is to enhance the bot's performance, add progressive load testing capabilities, and improve the overall user experience.

• The bot: supports gradually increasing the load (number of requests) over time, allowing for thorough testing of server response under escalating stress conditions.
• Real-Time Logging: Enhanced logging functionality that captures more detailed information during tests, including timestamps for better traceability.
• Command Line Interface (CLI) Enhancements: prompts for user input, making it easier to navigate and use the bot effectively as "p" for Ping and "h" for HTTP stress requests.
• Error Handling: More robust error handling to manage potential issues during network requests and improve overall stability.
• Resolved minor bugs: related to the PING and HTTP request functions.

Security Enhancements

• Updated dependencies to address potential security vulnerabilities.
• Added checks to ensure ethical use of the bot by prompting users for permission before conducting tests.
