Connection status for workers in distributed mode

When locust runs in --worker mode it doesn’t say anything about the connection to master. This can be hard to debug when the workers can’t connect to the master, because it doesn’t validate the connection at all.

Describe the solution you’d like

A log message for the workers saying that it’s connected via tcp://1.2.3.4 etc, and that it should fail if connection doesn’t work, or at least print a warning/error message about it.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Additional context

[joerg1985]

I am currently stuck setting up locust workers and no error is logged.

+1 for logging connection attempts and failures

PS: the master might also log if the server port has been successfully bound and is ready to accept connections from the workes.

Good idea 👍
