HTTP Req defaults combined Random contr.

2008-07-19 Thread Magnus Olstad Hansen
Hello, I'm trying to stress test a server net where we have 3 webserver nodes. Loadbalancing is done by our client side application (that is, each client randomly selects which of the webnodes it'll talk to). To test this correctly I wanted to create the same behavior in JMeter - but

Hi Magnus, I think you can simply the problem by consider this. If your clients randomly select a web server to talk to and they do this using a flat distribution, you could assume that you will get a 1/3 split of clients going to each webserver. The easy way to manage this is to divide your

Hi Kirk, Thanks for your reply - that's actually what we're going for. I was maybe a bit too stuck on replicating the functionality of the clients. :) Additionally our servers are identical so testing one of them should give a good indication of the two others... Still - it would be

The Sun-specific properties described in the networking document you sent me worked great. Thank you. As for the HTTPClient, I will try to find what protocol the server uses. What I do not understand is why HHTPRequest works fine, while HTTPCLinet does not. Michael sebb-2-2 wrote: On

Hello Z W, I'm no JMeter expert but if you study the GUI layout of a Jmeter TestPlan you will see that you add Samplers to ThreadGroups. So if you add 3 Samplers to one ThreadGroup you have 3 Samplers that can take on more attributes such as a Timer. HTH, David. Z W wrote .. Hi 1- I'm not

Hello Z W, please find attached a JMX file: Test Plan public.jmx. This file has several Samplers under a single ThreadGroup as a result of JMeter Proxy recording. This means all the HTTP Requests, which are Samplers, were recorded using HTTP Requests which are just Samplers. A few Listeners are
