But as for me, there are rather different aims for performance testing tool and for functional testing tool. When you are testing performance you should send requests as quickly as possible. You dont need to spend time for parsing html, supporting javaScript, building DOM, etc You should send requests for loading server. As for AJAX: It is possible to test AJAX applications, you dont need support HttpXmlRequest for this. Just send request and process the response. You need to implement your web client logic on JMeter plan. It is not very easy, but it is possible. Another problem when you want to test application and client should send several requests in the separate threads using one session (to test AJAX really asynchronous)... But I think it is another theme for discussion. -- Best regards, Dmitry Kudrenko ARDAS group http://ardas.dp.ua mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
