Re: Load Testing with Variable Request Path

Thanks Nerman and Deepak for your suggestions. I am going to try those.

I am going to use this as a test harness to do performance tuning for my
application. I am planning to use this to baseline the current application
performance and then compare all future releases against this baseline. I am
planning to run the test for multiple concurrent users. The site does not
have any session state as of now. So I am not worried about that.

Thanks,
Pawinder

One of the thing you should be careful about is why are you running this
test ? (yes you can read from file as described by nermin).
If these are independent requests - and your purpose is to check 404 or
something similar then there are no issues.

However if your goal is something like I have an access log and I want to
replay all the requests to simulate real world load then the approach
probably wont work - because there are missing factors that you should
consider like
a. concurrency and
b. session state

Yes, JMeter can read URL from a text file, just use "CSV Data Set Config"
(Config Element) and loop through it.

You can setup a "single-column" csv where you put one URL per line. If
necessary, you can add additional columns (sometimes I use "NAME,HOST" where
I put ${NAME} as a Sampler Name and ${HOST} is URL, just for clarity, or you
can use ${COUNTER} as a part of the Sampler Name so when you find an error
you can easily go back and trace the line in your input file. This is used
to collect all the failed records and to re-test them until everything is
hopefully fixed)

Subject: Load Testing with Variable Request Path

Hi,
I have a scenario where I need to load test a website that has over 5000
pages. One option is that I create 5000+ http request samplers. It will be
too time consuming to create and maintain so many requests. I was wondering
if jmeter can read the URL for request from a text file. So that I could
keep URLs to all the web pages in a text file and jmeter reads from the text
file and fires http requests.

Any suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks,
Pawinder

Load Testing with Variable Request Path

2011-09-09 Thread pawinder
Hi,
I have a scenario where I need to load test a website that has over 5000
pages. One option is that I create 5000+ http request samplers. It will be
too time consuming to create and maintain so many requests. I was wondering
if jmeter can read the URL for request from a text file. So that I could
keep URLs to all the web pages in a text file and jmeter reads from the text
file and fires http requests.

Any suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks,
Pawinder
