Hi guys! Tried to find the answer for my question among the other issues but couldn’t find. I have basic auth in my web application. Could someone send me the example of locustfile.py, how to correctly perform the auth in this case because i have an error all the time ? Capture Tried the following many code in internet but it doesn’t work. I’m getting this error

Are you using the default HTTP client on HttpLocust or are you using the client from FastHttpLocust, or are you using a custom client?

From the error message you receive, it doesn’t sound like it has anything to do with basic auth. It sounds more like you’re having some kind of connection error. Have you tried doing an HTTP request using curl from the machine you’re running Locust on, to the server you’re trying to test against?

Please provide a minimal reproducible code example if you still believe that this is a bug in Locust.

URLError(error(111, 'Connection refused'),) doesn’t sound like something related to Basic Auth. What HTTP client are you using?
