Having built-in Javascript support (and HTTPS proxy capture a la PureTest) would be a godsend for us. I'm working on doing some load testing of our web app, but it makes heavy use of HTTPS and Javascript. So far it is proving very hard to make the JMeter load match the "real world" activity.

I'm surely biased on this as I'm lead developer of HtmlUnit but I really
think that a combination of JMeter & HtmlUnit (or WebTest) would bring
great possibilities in load testing of Ajax applications.

HtmlUnit "is" a browser that evaluates the JS (nearly) like normal
browsers do. But it is so lightweight that it is possible to run a few
hundreds instances of WebClient (the "browser") in parallel on a normal
computer.

I don't know what the current status is with Dojo support, but complex
Ajax libraries are already supported by HtmlUnit and other will come.

Cheers,
Marc.

Is anyone using Jmeter to test a web application that uses Web 2.0 capability and specifically one that uses DoJo.

I have dealt with applications that make use of javascript before and do this by simulating what the javascript does in Jmeter.

Now, with these heavily scripted applications, the job appears that it will be more difficult as the amount of javascript executed is very large.

I realize that recording is one option, but have found that this does not work in alot of cases, because of the dynamic nature of the javascript.
