Hello Everyone, I am a new JMeter user and am having difficulty setting up my tests to accurately simulate users. I ran a test with 50 simulated users and it completely hammers the server (which didnt seem right to me). So then I tried with one simulated user and it appears to hammering the cache at an unrealistic rate. Almost as if the single simulated user is looping through the test at an incredible rate that a normal user couldnt do. Its worth noting that the test is being run behind a few XServes as the actual test would be 1000 simulated users (once I figure this out).
You must log into the site using username/password combination. After logging in, your session is stored in a cookie. I used the cookie manager for that piece and recorded my test using JMeters proxy feature. I didnt do anything fancy when recording the test, just clicking on different pages and waiting for them to load. With that said, here is how I have the test setup: -Thread (with the # of simulated users set inside it) --Cookie Manager --Recorded test plan -Listener 1 -Listener 2 -Listener 3 Is there a key controller or component I am missing? Or is this really what 1 user will do to the website? Once I figure out how to properly test with one user I will try to scale this number up to the 1000 that is needed. Thanks for any help you can give! -- View this message in context: http://jmeter.512774.n5.nabble.com/Simulated-users-tp2798333p2798333.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]
