Being able to load test or soak test distributed systems is a common requirement. Since Camel can easily test distributed systems via Mocks and has tons of components, transports & protocols it can talk to together with all the EIPs and smart routing & transformation - I figured it was time to try use Camel for this.
I've taken a first stab at it - its documented here http://cwiki.apache.org/CAMEL/dataset.html Have a read and see what you think; there's an example of load testing ActiveMQ on that page, but we can use the same thing to test other kinds of things; whether its ServiceMix or CXF or custom beans or components etc. Its just a first step - am sure there's a ton of stuff we can do to improve this. Thoughts greatly appreciated. -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/ Open Source Integration http://open.iona.com
