Hi all,
I have set up tests to test an application all in one test plan. The
plan is to run, lets say as 10 threads and all threads are performing
the same set of actions. Those actions take about 8 minutes per
thread. What I have noticed about the application being tested is there
is an independent frame which refreshes every 2 minutes. It doesn't
matter what else goes on in the main application, that frame still
refreshes every 2 minutes. The independent frame performs some mundane
actions as well during the refresh which need to be replicated.
Replication sounds simple enough. I figured if I'm going to have 10
threads running in the main thread group then I can run another 10
threads in another thread group doing the mundane independent frame
requests.
The problem is the two frames are related by one thing and that is the
authentication clearance stored in a cookie of the main thread group.
That cookies contents would need to be shared with its partner thread so
it can make the requests properly. I don't know how to do this or even
if it's possible. I can't make the second partner thread group just log
itself in because that would be double the login requests I'm really
meant to be performing.
The other problem is I was considering running those mundane requests in
an infinite loop which should stop just before the partner test does the
log out action. How can I communicate between partner threads so at a
certain point in thread 'A' it tells its partner thread to terminate its
loop.
Any help would be appreciated. If it's not entirely possible then let
me know how far I can take it & I'll decide if it's acceptable for this
project.
Cheers,
Anthony
