Good point, but not an option I think, since the scripts will become many and that would mean running out of memory resources pretty quickly on the machine. >> Would there be any way to submit test scripts to a running jmeter >> server without using Java to do the actual submission? > > Probably not, as JMeter uses RMI for client-server communication. Ok, no problem, we can go for some Java programming I guess :) However, since I'm not really into that yet, I seem to fail in finding out what the preferred/documented way is to talk to a running jMeter server through RMI. Could you give me a hint on where to start? Any pointer to (e.g. jMeter) example code would do. One more question: Am I correct that the original idea (submit file, wait for server to execute script, submit next file) will work when programmed in Java? Or is there no such thing as 'submit XML file to server'... >> Should I be looking into Beanshell? >> Or something like PHP/Java integration? >> (http://php.net/manual/en/ref.java.php) > > Can't see how these would help. > > == > > The JMeter GUI allows one to run a script, load another file, and then run > that. > In theory, this functionality could be added to non-GUI mode. > > However you could design a mechanism to define the tests and the > timings, and would then need to do the necessary Java coding. Ok, a problem here would probably be that our input files are dynamical, and thus not known in advance.
