There are plenty of Proxy Recorders; indeed you should be able to use the JMeter Proxy Recorder to capture the traffic between the GUI and the servlet. This assumes that you can tell the GUI app to use a proxy. If not, then you could use a protocol analyser such as Wireshark to capture the traffic, and create a test plan from it manually. This would allow you to use JMeter to test the servlet - i.e. JMeter would pretend to be the GUI app. But you cannot use JMeter to test the GUI app directly. > sebb wrote .. > > > On 08/08/2008, David Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hello jmeter crowd, does anyone out there in jmeter-land have any > background > > using Jmeter against a Swing based client application?
