Once you are able [ass your JUnit tests you may want to use OpenSTA (http://www.opensta.org) instead. It is an opensource project which gives you many of the same capabilities that you get with WinRunner. -----Original Message----- From: Fred Yoo [mailto:fred@troux.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 8:45 AM To: 'jmeter-user@jakarta.apache.org' Subject: uploading stress testing questions I can't say whether I am in the right place to ask this question, but I was wondering if this list couldn't provide support if someone could point me in the right direction... My company has a Java (EJB) application with a front-end site, the server on the back-end takes in POSTS from clients that have Java agents running on them. The upload that these agents POST is a partially formed XML document. We have provided hooks into the beans so that when we receive the partial XML file, we then merge it into our parent skeleton and then verify it against our DTD. My original intention was to use JMeter to mimic the role of these agents performing their POST, over 8080 or 8443, and then to provide some metrics based on the performance of our web server. The only problem is that JMeter doesn't seem to be 'seeing' any of these posts, and I think that it is just ignoring it since it is a malformed XML file. I can't send a valid XML file because the DTD will spit out an error saying it is an invalid XML file with dual headers. I think that with most load/performance testing software, I will be running into the same problem. Is there something out there that anyone knows of, or a way to configure JMeter to work with this particular project, outside of just sending a whole bunch of POSTS from a script file and then testing the load with a perfmon on the server measuring packets in a Win2K environment or Solaris? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if anything is unclear please let me know!
