[wtr-general] Re: Re-Usable Load Testing with Watir : Optimize loadtester.rb
Generally speaking, in order to handle a large pool of threads and be
able to scale the load, most loadtesting is done at the protocol
(HTTP) level, not using full blown browser based clients.
Since most load is not from simple page hits against static or cached
pages, you need to actually be interacting with the server as would a
large number of unique users. Most decent webservers can serve cached
copies of a static page until the pipe saturates without overloading
the server or the back end. So having 200 users doing the same
search, doesn't create the load you need.
So what you need is a system where thread to use its own unique data,
so you can simulate a hundred different users, shopping for 80-100
different items, or doing different searches or whatever. (and 100 is
just to start, a true loadtest often simulates interacting with many
thousand users over a period of an hour or so)
While I might use Watir to conduct a functional test DURING a
loadtest, I would not use it to apply the load.
Despite the existence of the example, I personally would not do
loadtesting with watir. I'd use something like the loadtesting tool
in VS2010, Jmeter, or if you can afford it, Loadrunner. (which one
would work best and provide the best bang for the buck depends on your
server environment)

[wtr-general] Re: error message
I agree. The other possibility is that the server is sending different HTML, perhap using an older technique like frames etc, to do something that is done another way in FF, but can't be done that way in IE, because IE doesn't support it. You might want to view source, and save it for both pages, and then compare it with a diffing tool to see if there's an obvious difference Since it looks like you are trying to click an 'about us' link, I'd also check to be sure there is not more than one of them on the page, and maybe you need something else to better nail down which one to click.

Re: [wtr-general] Re: Re-Usable Load Testing with Watir : Optimize loadtester.rb
Personally I've used WatirGrid[1] with great success, I used it to drive 50
browsers concurrently. 50 is not the ceiling, I was just limited by how many
boxes I had at hand.
The limitation with browser based testing is the resources required on which
to drive the browsers! BrowserMob have reduced this (but they only support
Selenium). I'm thinking of something similar for Watir users. I've also been
experimenting with headless tests (watir-webdriver with htmlunit) with a
fair amount of success, which increases your bang-for-box. I'll talk about
some of this at Watir day in any case.
In my experience, not every load test is thousands of users. I've load
tested some awful intranet apps that have fallen over well before 100 users
... So you may get some mileage out of Watir yet ... Protocol level testing
is probably better for load tests with thousands of users though based on
bang-for-box. I expect there's an undiscovered sweet spot somewhere there
where the cost per vuser shifts in favour of protocol level (when using
commercial licensed tools) testing.

Tim

[wtr-general] Watir Book
Hi, I have started writing a book on Watir. My family has agreed that I can work on the book for about 8 hours almost every Saturday. The source (markdown) will always be free at Github[1] and I plan to sell the pdf for $9. I know I will not get rich by writing a book on Watir, but some money would be nice. Version 0.1.1 of the pdf is available now[2], for free. If you think there needs to be a book on Watir, and you think I am the right person to write it, feel free to buy the book now[3]. You will get all updates to the book for free. (Well, version 0.1.1 can be downloaded for free anyway.) I promise I will not take the money, spend it on beer and never write the book. :) If I see I will not finish the book, I will return the money. Also, if you buy the book and you do not like it, I will return the money. If you like the idea, but do not have $9, feel free to send any amount to zeljko.fili...@gmail.com via Paypal. You can also donate to the book via Flattr[4]. I appreciate any amount.
