Thanks for the reply Erez. I have some experience in JMeter, it is very useful tool. But I haven't use JMeter as a functional testing tool.
So, have you ever come across any difficulty while using the JMeter for API functional automation? Moreover, in SoapUI, you can convert the requests to test cases, test suite, etc. But JMeter doesn't have anything like this. (I don't have any experience in SoapUI) And what about assertions in Jmeter? Are they sufficient for functional testing?
