Hi,


What is to be done?

We have an application deployed on the Sharepoint (corporate) Server which uses 
the windows credentials to log into the application.

  *   App URL format: http://testmachine:1000/sites/test/

  *   Windows Credentials Format: [email protected]

The objective is to perform the load/performance testing on the application 
(especially the log in functionality) for such n number of users.

Normally when I hit the app URL in the Firefox/IE, it pops up a window asking 
for credentials. I enter the credentials, browse the app and then log out. I 
intend to capture this in JMeter and simulate this for large number of users.

Where I’m stuck?

Now I start the JMeter proxy server, and then try the same steps as above. But 
when the pop up window appears, JMeter simply doesn’t record the it nor it does 
record anything else after the login.

What I’ve tried?

If I try the same steps after enabling “Automatically detect intranet network” 
in IE, then it simply auto detects my windows credentials (No credentials 
pop-up), logs me into the app (this is not recorded in JMeter either) and takes 
me to the home page. And any page thereafter I hit gets recorded in JMeter.

I’ve also tried to use the HTTP Authorization 
Manager<http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Authorization_Manager>
 using following parameters:

  *   BaseURL : http://testmachine:1000/sites/test/
  *   Username: DOMAIN\USER_ID
  *   Password: i_wont_tell_you
  *   Domain: \
  *   Realm:

It didn't help. I am quite confused about how-to-use the above element. And not 
even sure whether its a right approach to get the solution to my problem.

Any help/suggestions?

( P.S. I know about a tool called Badboy, but have to go for it as a last 
resource. Also not even sure if it records the pop windows. And sorry if the 
post is verbose.)

Thanks and Regards,
Ravindra
