Groovy script for testing monitors - outputs specified logs lines on a schedule you can set.

OutputTester.groovy

//OutputTester.groovy - Used to output data at specific times. Useful for testing monitors
def counter = 0
outputLine =  args.length > 0 ? args[0] : "App:LogscapeSmokeTest Counter:$counter The Service has successfully deployed"


while(1){

	def nowMins = new Date().format("mm").toInteger()
	def nowSecs = new Date().format("ss").toInteger()
	def nowMillis = new Date().format("SS").toInteger()

  //If you want to specify which minutes it runs on, uncomment out the below line. Otherwise it's every two minutes
	//if(nowMins == 0)
	if (nowMins % 2 == 0 ){
		//Only runs in the 0 second - change to suit your needs
		if (nowSecs == 0){
			//Only runs in the first 499 milliseconds - change to suit your needs
			if( nowMillis < 050){
				println("$timestamp $outputLine")
				//If you want to track the number of messages etc, uncomment the below two lines
				//println("$timestamp Counter = $counter nowMillis=$nowMillis")
				counter++
