Hi Carolina,

I wrote successfully several scripts to test document management system (mostly 
based on Documentum).
It need some work, but it is quite feasible.

In general (for all test scripts) there are few caveats:
- you have to understand the protocol between the browser and the server (it 
can be quite different from the interaction at UI level)
- once you have recorded one or more transactions, you have to "parametrize it", i.e. to calculate and insert all the parameters that are needed by the server, and that may differ from time to time.
This is especially true with web services, that may bear session ID back and 
forth across transactions.
This often leads to record several different transactions and watch what changed between them, (httpwatch is quite useful in this step, or grinder for fat clients).

Hi Daniel,

I've tried to use Badboy, and worked perfectly, but I had problems to
configure threads into the application and we need to test with threads, and
Jmeter responded better with the threads.

I'll do a research about the Unix commands as you suggested.

Thanks again for your help.

Best regards,

Carolina

Hi Carolina,

Maybe try to record in Badboy and replay that way. Other way to test web
services is using  some Unix commands and write an script.

Let me know if you need any more help.

Sorry I could not help more but this questions are challenging.

Dan

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your response. I think Jmeter doesn't do what we need. We
did a lot of research, but we found nothing and no one knows how to
help us to do this.

The application is running through web services.

Thanks for your help for now.

Best regards,

Carolina

Hi Carolina,

Two scenarios:

1- I have read (feed) from static files. Not sure is that will be an
option for you.
2- Once I had to upload a chemical structure file. I was unable to do
that at the beginning but later after sniffing the whole transaction I
was able to understand how the application decodes  the "special" file.

How are you guys recording the test? How are you understanding "sniffing"
the whole interaction from your application?

Good luck,
Dan

Hi Daniel,

We are trying to upload any kind of file, since images, then txt
files, doc, audio files, video files, of different sizes.

We did the Jmeter calls through the link of the document we want to
view.
We
have into the environment a security service running too.

We did all the analysis and this is still not working.

Thanks a lot for your return and I hope you can help us, because we
really need this.

Best regards,

Carolina

Hi Carlina,

Did you analyze how the information is embedded in the application
once is uploaded?

What kind of file are you trying to upload? Is it a txt file or an
special type?


Thanks,
Dan

Hi Jmeter team,

We are having some troubles when we try to set the configuration
to upload a file through Jmeter. It is an ECM web application and
is to save, manage and store many kind of documents and all these
actions require lots of mouse clicks. The main application module
is to import documents and to scan documents from a scanner
connected to the computer and store this. But when we try to
configure these modules into Jmeter, it is not working.

The application works this way:

- Import module: We fill the text fields with the required
information, then, we press the selection button and an selection
window is opened to select the file on the path chosen. After this
the file is carried into the document that is being created and
then, after this, the document is indexed.

- Scan module: We fill the text fields with the required
information, then we press the scan button and then, the image is
scanned and is showed in the viewer, then we finish the document.

In both modules are possible to import or scan more than one file
or
image.
We need Jmeter to do this, to upload more than one file at the
same
time.
Our application records the log report, but when we try to check
if the action occurred, there's no log about what has been done.

Do you know who can help us to solve this problem?

Since now, thanks for your help.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Carolina
