Lots of little things like the drag and drop need polishing - I'd prefer to be able to drag and drop multiple files at once, for instance. I'm not sure exactly what you are referring to with Eclipse (I don't find myself dragging files around in Eclipse), but I imagine you are thinking of a system whereby visual cues are provided to indicate whether you're about to drop an element into, above, or below a tree node. I wouldn't think that would be too hard.

Sorry -- my mistake: Eclipse does _not_ do that. But you understood what I meant. For an example, see Mozilla 1.4 bookmark management (checked this one this time). You're right drag'n'drop of multiple files is a must.


Yes, and maybe automatic adding of Cookie Managers to plans that include HTTPSamplers?


Or a wizard that sets things up for HTTP work?
- Ask for server & port (default 80).
- Ask whether you want the script to get images, applets, etc. or not
- Set up Thread Group, Recording Controller, one listener of choice, Cookie Manager.
- Set up Proxy with appropriate stuff depending on inputs above.


How about leaving listeners for real-time test result visualization & test result gathering/saving and having a separate application (or module) for more complex data analysis. Maybe there's something in the non-market we can use straight away?


Sounds great.


I'll start a search.


Instead, I would focus into accuracy by raising priority of threads during actual sampling. Would not improve total performance in terms of max throughput, but would improve measurement accuracy at mid and high loads.


I've thought about this but I don't think it scales up very high. The majority of any of JMeter's threads time is spent sleeping, either in timer delay, or waiting for IO. Giving all your IO waiting threads a higher priority doesn't help much. I also think it might worsen things to make a bunch of threads sitting on IO calls the highest priority!


It should not worsen things much: a sleeping thread is a sleeping thread, no matter at which priority. Only that once it wakes up, it would run with a minimum of obstacles to completion of the sampling.


Of course it would not improve throughput at all -- if anything it would reduce it slightly, because switching priorities has a cost, even if small. But accuracy at high loads could improve significantly.

You mention socket factories - is it possible for JMeter to control all sockets created within the JVM?

I have no idea. Was just a shot in the dark, but I'll research this.

Salut,
