we've tested apache jmeter and also the microsoft web application stress
tool (i cant remember the exact name). the microsoft tool allows you to
record activity scripts, so it can be a bit easier.
the problem with such tools, however, is that we haven't found a way to
simulate real user activity effectively. we can copy an url with parms and
bang away at a particular page, but our app is based on action classes and
request dispatcher, which we haven't really gotten to work with an automated
tool. we always end up with session trouble. our pages do almost nothing
apart from display logic, so with such tools we're not currently able to
test the real workhorses of our app which are the classes that our action
objects control.
i'd be keen to hear anyone else's views / suggestions on this issue.
unfortunately, the best 'stress-testing' tool i've found so far is everybody
in the company hitting the app at once from differenct clients..
