JMeter was originally developed for HTTP(S), but can also now talk to other servers using FTP, JMS, JDBC etc. Additional protocols can be added without needing to rebuild JMeter. We did this for testing an in-house protocol. Only the sampler needed to be written; JMeter provides the rest of the framework. > Anyone know of any pitfalls that I should look > out for? The Tree View Listener works best for HTTP protocols, but is usable for others. JMeter is only designed for request-response protocols. > Thanks in advance. > > Paul Riley > > > > This email was sent to you by Reuters, the global news and information > company. > To find out more about Reuters visit www.about.reuters.com > > Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, > except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of Reuters > Limited. > > Reuters Limited is part of the Reuters Group of companies, of which Reuters > Group PLC is the ultimate parent company. > Reuters Group PLC - Registered office address: The Reuters Building, South > Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London E14 5EP, United Kingdom > Registered No: 3296375 > Registered in England and Wales > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
