Subject: Running "server" tests under Gump
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

I'd like to extend the JMeter unit tests to include some tests of the
samplers; however most of the samplers require a server to connect to.

Just wondering what would be the best way to go about this.

Here are some possibilities:
* run a server on a local port as part of the test suite - but how to
choose a free port number, and what server code to use - it's
expensive to start Tomcat just for a unit test or three.
* connect to one of the Apache/Jakarta sites (for http/ftp at least)
* if external connections are to be avoided (apart from cvs/svn, of
course), perhaps the gump could provide a set of local test servers.

Or indeed is it a good idea to run such tests under Gump at all?
