One of the big goals for testing tools and a test suite in OFBiz is to have tests that can be automatically run periodically by a server, and preferably something that only requires a checkout, build, run tests.
At this point we haven't a test tool that will fulfill this and other things we'd like in an Apache compatible open source license.
As for WebLoad, it would depend on the licensing requirements of the scripts it generates as sometimes those or parts of them are licensed similar to what generates them.

Hi David,Even if we do not include webload with ofbiz its not a problem, since wecan just include the test suites created for it.I wanted to use JMeter (which can be obviously bundled with ofbiz), but its not as polished as webload. Also webload is thick client applicationand would require it to be installed on load machines, so it would be good if we just include the test suite and let the users download itthemselves and test the application in their environment. Since at lastits upto the users to do the test based on their specific functional requirements. Obviously we can use Webload to publish out performance test results based on specific hardware and software configuration. So GPL licensing won't pose any problem for us as we are not changing the source of webload just using it as it is. Moreover we are notbundling it with ofbiz (there is no need its better if user download bythemselves as it is pretty big application).

Especially as we start working on stabilizing therelease branch testing in general will be very important.Unfortunately WebLoad is GPL licensed. What that means is that not onlycan we not include it with OFBiz, but we can't even include code thatuses it in OFBiz (because it would have to be GPL licensed, and if other code used it that code would have to be GPL licensed... the viral effectcan kill our more friendly licensing). -David On Apr 18, 2007, at 7:39 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Hi Everyone, I have started working on creating a performance test for ofbiz along with its development. I am using the tool http://www.webload.org/ to do functional as well as performance testing. I could have done this in Selenium or JMeter but it seems webload is polished, easy and now is open source.If anyone else has some performance figures for ofbiz please would youshare with me. Thanks with best regards, Vikrant
