Performance testing with Jmeter

Data base testing with Jmeter is simple. Here I am using Jmeter2.3 and Oracle 10g. Some of the things needs to be taken care before start testing. 1. Place the JDBC JAR file in --> Jmeter\lib folder (For Oracle 10g it will be classes12.jar) 2.Need to know the JDBC Driver class, If you don't know where to find the Driver class information, Open the Jar file using winzip or any tool for that matter and edit the OracleDriver.class in text file and there you can find the JDBC Driver Class.( oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver) 3. Create Test Plan and add thread group. 4. Add the Config Element-->”JDBC Connection Configuration” and fill in all the required information, It should look like below figure. Fig 1 5. From the above figure notice that Variable name is highlighted, what ever name you give here will be shared with the "Jdbc request default". In my example I have given variable name as "SQL". Provide the JDBC Drive Class information which you got from Oracle...

Initially when I tried to do Load testing with Ajax I found that it was not an easy job to do, especially when DWR concept is involved, I didn't find any good solution on web, so decided to dig in and give it a try on my desk top and found that handling Ajax with DWR in Jmeter is pretty simple but not that easy. Here I am assuming that Ajax is implemented using DWR. Before start recording you need to consider which version of DWR is used, based on the version of DWR we need to choose the recording approach. This approach will vary with DWR 1.3 and above 1.3 So considering the steps involved for DWR version 1.3 1. Record the scripts as you do normally. 2. Have the listener "View result tree" which will help in debugging the scripts. Fig 1 From the above figure we can see that few of the DWR calls have been captured. One thing to be noticed is that right hand panel shows “Name/Value” pair and the method used is "POST". The value captured is in single line and ini...
