RE: load testing tomcat
We use a "free" app from Micorosft called Web Application Stress Tool. It's quite nice, since it runs as a service of a bunch of workstations and from a console you can schedule a load test. It can also record your navigation from IE and create a test script. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/itsolutions/intranet/downloads/webstres.asp Note: It's quite hard to setup if you want to fine tune how many threads you want, and perf monitors are useless if you are not running Tomcat in a NT/W2K box, so you'll get only requests per second, speed, HTTP error code listings and so on. You can install the service in common PCs and use them when nobody is working, but results are highly degraded as WAST is a service running on background, specialy on NT Workstation/W2K Professional. Time ago we had to assign budget for old fashioned PCs dedicated to perf test (not just Tomcat ;)) Ivan --- "Extance, Paul" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > We use the load tester from the Jaffa project > (http://jaffa.sourceforge.net/documentation/tools/testing/) > which is based > on HttpUnitTest (http://httpunit.sourceforge.net) > we're able to reuse our > unit tests for load testing, which saves some > development time.

RE: load testing tomcat
We use the load tester from the Jaffa project (http://jaffa.sourceforge.net/documentation/tools/testing/) which is based on HttpUnitTest (http://httpunit.sourceforge.net) we're able to reuse our unit tests for load testing, which saves some development time. It provides some nice default features for authentication and provides random log-ins from given user sets. I've not tried it will SSL, but as httpunittest supports SSL (see http://httpunit.sourceforge.net/doc/sslfaq.html) I'm sure it will work. Paul Extance -Original Message- From: Mark W.

Howdy, I like JMeter, The Grinder, wget, Load (from PushToTest). Unlike the other response, I really don't think LoadRunner is worth its price. Even if it were free, I wouldn't use it exclusively.

Re: load testing tomcat
I'm mucking my way through this myself. I use JMeter. I haven't used it with SSL, but it appears to support. Dhruva --- "Mark W.

Re: load testing tomcat
Hi, My humble opinion is that you can't beat LoadRunner. It is expensive, but you get what you pay for. The reports are awesome and it doesn't goof up as bad as many other tools. It's scripting language is very rich. But like I said it isn't free. In fact unless you have budgeted for it chances are it will be difficult to cough up the dough for it. -e On Tue, 29 Jul 2003, Mark W. Webb wrote: > does anyone have experience load testing tomcat?

load testing tomcat
does anyone have experience load testing tomcat? I am especially interested in mutually authenticate SSL load testing where tomcat runs in conjunction with apache 2.0.47. What tools are people using to test tomcat/apache? thank you. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
