The Issue has reduced its impact for us as we can use a PKI Zertificate through the SLL Manager now.
Still: 1. As servers often have underlying HTTP Authentication that issue should in theory be possible to handle with ULC Load. 2. Handling multiple client Zertificates as identification for diffrent users stays an issue. It might be solvable if better documentation for the Connector Provider Architecture was available.

I apologize if this post should show up twice due to the fact that it against my perception did work the first time but was just delayed. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Meyer-Geerken Michael (KSLD 621) Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 6:47 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ULC-developer] ULC Load Http Authentication I have the task of Performance testing an ULC-Applet. I am currently trying todo this evaluating ULC Load (3.0.2). I have a rather technical simple Problem. The Applet is served by a Weblogic Server. Prior to giving Access it Requests HTTP Authentication. In ULC Load the Authentication Requester Pops Up for every single start of an Instance of the Test. As the Authentication is not part of the Applet it is not controllable through ULC (Applet) Means. JMeter as Base of ULC Load could do the Login automaticly, but it seems as if the HTTP Authentication Manager is Missing. The other way to supply a list of Users through an XML does not work either, at least I can not find a way to supply the File in a way that the Framwork will pick it up.. The Login Config Element (Which I did not know before today) seems to be either for a diffrent purpose or not working. A colleague from Canoo, who had currently not enough time to investigate things for himself, told me to to conntact the mailinglist if in doubt. He also set me on the path to provide a connector that would do the authentication by providing my own version of com.ulcload.base.connector.ULCLoadDefaultConnectorProvider . (Interface com.ulcload.base.connector.IConnectorProvider) With the given Documentation and after looking into the classes this seems to be a thorny way of unnecessary reverse engeneering at best. Therfore: Is there a code example for a Connector, maybe even one doing HTTP Authentication ? Or is there a way to make the JMeter Base of ULC Load do the automatic handling of the Authentication again? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Best-Regards Michael MG
