Using Jmeter with Java Server Faces (Urgent help needed)
Hi all,
I want to stress test a Java Server Faces based application...
I have tried to use Proxy to automatically record a test plan using
Jmeter.But nothing happens i.e I got no results.
However I have seen on internet a tutorial which describes the use of Jmeter
with struts by the mean of Proxy.
Have anyone ever tried to use Jmeter to stress test a Java Server Faces
based application?If yes, please tell me how.
If no, could you give me a hint about some tools which I can use to do the
job.
Moreover, I m looking for some tools which offer possibility to write some
test scripts and possibility to assert results from the server.
Thanks you in advance for your quick replies.

Thx Ivan for your answer,
I have already used the canoo Webtest for functional testing of my JSF
application.
Now,I want to make stress test for the application.
I do appreciate your idea of running several webTest instances concurrently
to simulate load.
My question is: How to measure some statistical data such as: Throughput,
deviation....that Jmeter offers?
I think Canoo WebTest doesn´t offer such features.I m right?
Is there any other tools which can be combined together with Canoo WebTest
tool to make stress testing?
Thx in advance for your reply.

If your JSF application cannot be driven by URL only, then perhaps
JMeter is not the best tool for tackling the problem.
Unless I'm missing something obvious, there's no sampler that deal with
the html object model itself, so JMeter can't do things like filling
fields and clicking radio buttons.
For JSF ui testing, I'd suggest WebTest
http://webtest.canoo.com/webtest/manual/WebTestHome.html
It's not a load testing tool, but it can drive an html application very
well (better so if every control has an unique html id). I simulate load
by running several WebTest instances concurrently.
It's ant based, btw
hope this helps
