**1.** A stress test client should be able to repeatedly execute one or more of the existing 'interop test cases'. It may just be a wrapper around the existing interop test client. The exact command line arguments the client should support are listed in _Table 1_ below.
-**2.** The stress test client must implement a metrics server defined by _[metrics.proto](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/src/proto/grpc/testing/metrics.proto)_ and must expose _qps_ as a long-valued Gauge. The client can track the overall _qps_ in one Gauge or in multiple Gagues (for example: One per Channel or Stub).

The client can track the overall _qps_ in one Gauge or in multiple Gagues (for example: One per Channel or Stub).
The framework periodically queries the _qps_ by calling the `GetAllGauges()` method (the framework assumes that all the returned Gauges are _qps_ Gauges) and uses this to determine if the stress test client is running or crashed or stalled.
> *Note:* In this context, the term _**qps**_ means _interop test cases per second_ (not _messages per second_ or _rpc calls per second_)
**Table 1:** Command line arguments that should be supported by the stress test client.
