We have used webtest in conjunction with The Grinder 3 to perform
load/stress tests, with a great deal of success. It wasn't all that
pretty and it was fairly manual but it did the job.
The Grinder 3 is a load testing tool that natively supports jython.
You can then centrally control many clients running the python
script.
Basically, I developed a python script to start Ant and run a
specific test. I could then control how many times this was run, the
ramp-up time, etc that you would normally do when load testing. There
was a memory problem with this script which I never fixed and so we
instead used the python script to run a .bat file instead (which just
ran the ant script).
I've send an email to the list with the scripts attached but it is
awaiting moderator approval because it's too big.
It never arrived, did it? JMeter sounds somewhat more practical than
this anyway. Thank you nonetheless!
