However, it might need quite a bit of work to implement that. Patches (via Bugzilla) welcome. == Another possibility - if you don't have too many sessions - is to turn the access log into a single CSV file for each session, and read each using CSV Dataset. However this won't solve your strict ordering requirement. But in real-life, there is no such ordering between independent users. I think I would use the information from the access logs to generate a suitable test plan, and then generate the required load at the server by increasing the number of threads and/or reducing the timers. > Regards, > > Gerrie > > -- > View this message in context: > http://old.nabble.com/Replay-a-recorded-load-using-JMeter-tp28533968p28533968.html > Sent from the JMeter - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
