No idea. Never heard of JView. Seems to me that this is a question for the JView community. If the thick client can be persuaded to use a proxy, you should be able to use the JMeter proxy to record the test, in the same way as browsers can be recorded by telling them to use the JMeter proxy. I suggest you experiment with recording a browser session first. If you can't persuade the thick client to use a proxy, and it does not have tracing facilities, then you will need a protocol analyser such as WireShark. > The issue I seem to have is that I cannot get the config file to point to > the proxy. > for example i tried changing the following > <endpoint address="http://vgdev04:1913/CommitteeService.asmx"; > binding="basicHttpBinding" > bindingConfiguration="CommitteeServiceSoap" > contract="ORCommittee.CommitteeServiceSoap" > name="CommitteeServiceSoap" /> > <endpoint > address="http://vgdev04:1913/TurnAndSectionService.asmx"; > to > <endpoint address="http://localhost:9090/CommitteeService.asmx"; > binding="basicHttpBinding" > bindingConfiguration="CommitteeServiceSoap" > contract="ORCommittee.CommitteeServiceSoap" > name="CommitteeServiceSoap" /> > <endpoint > address="http://vgdev04:1913/TurnAndSectionService.asmx"; > any ideas That does not look like you are configuring a proxy, just a different target host. Which is not at all the same, as how does the proxy know where to forward the request? But you need to ask about that on the JView list. > >Andrew > > > > A.Gilmore wrote: > > > > I am attempting to load test a thick client that sends http requests to a > > mid tier. > > I was wondering if this is possible with Jmeter and how I would set the > > system up to achieve this. > > > > -- > > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/Testing-a-thick-client-with-mid-tier-tp23541805p23556595.html > > Sent from the JMeter - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > 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]
