Yes, I am partially with you, we can't ignore functional testing. It is because I am using both JMeter and CanooWebTests for my web applications. One for perfomance another for functional testing. Every day browsers are implemented a lot of complex technologies and tomorrow clients will be more complex than today. But clients generally communicate with server using requests and responses. And seems it will be so for a long time yet. Client PC (where testing tool is lunching) should be much more powerful than server PC, if we will join 2 very useful and powerful approaches in one for testing performance. If it will be so, performance testing should be clustered or dead. -- Regards, Dmitry Kudrenko ARDAS group http://ardas.dp.ua --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
