# Athletic tests
ZEUS comes equipped with scripts for benchmarking its IPC Adapters using the Athletic framework; these tests can be found in the `benchmarks/Ipc` directory.
To execute the benchmarks the following command must be issued:
```
user@host:/var/www/zf-apigility-skeleton/vendor/zeus-server/zf3-server$ ../../bin/athletic -p benchmarks/Ipc
```
Output (on the _Intel Core i7_ processor):
