RE: want to simulate browser close

I think that if you set the cookie manager to reset after each itereation then it will be behaving as you want.

Subject: want to simulate browser close

Folks,
               I want to simulate one particular situation through Jmeter. 
In my application the session is maintained through cookies.Now these 
cookies are set to be "session-only" ie setMaxAge(some negative value) 
which means  the cookie is not stored persistently and will be deleted 
when the Web browser exits.  Now i want to simulate a browser close 
through Jmeter and then Jmeter should again simulate a browser open and 
start with the login page(which incidentally is the starting page of the 
Test Plan) again with

 
another login request with the same cookie.
another login request without the same cookie.

How is this possible ?I want to check how this situation is handled under 
load and ensure nothing weird is happening at the server side .(ie if a 
new session starts with an old cookie that session should be invalidated)

N.B: Internet explorer 6.0 keeps the cookies in memory and when the 
browser exits it clears up the memory.Is this the way Cookie manager in 
Jmeter handles cookies?I am using Jmeter 2.2 . I have run my test plan 
before with the Cookie manager in place at the top level in the Thread 
Group.

Re: want to simulate browser close

Posted by Ch...@labware.com.
I have tried with your suggestion and my application actually works ok. 
But i am not being able to simulate the browser close .Any ideas on how to 
do it ?Lets keep it simple. Say i have two threads(say A and B). Say A 
goes through some steps and then decides to close his browser and then 
open again and start from the beginning point again and try to complete 
the test. B will go on as it is expected to go. How to script this 
scenario ?

I suspect it will work OK as it will clear the cookie cache at the end of 
the single path through the loop - but why not try it and let us know :-)

Thanks Alex  for your prompt reply but initially I would like to keep it 
very very simple and i am not bothered with timings now .Rather I want  to 

just check that my responses are proper when n number of users are 
operating simultaneously and some of them closes their browser and opens 
them again and starts a new session. To start with I am keeping loop cunt 
=1. If that is the case , how will the cookie manager reset after 
iteration as there wont be any iteration at all.?
