Protobuf handling Jmeter
Hi guys,
Any idea on handling of Protobuf requests via Jmeter ?
Thanks,
Prateek

Thanks Deepak. Example 2 is the concern in my case. Yeah we are going via
writing Java Code approach but thought of any other alternative to do this.
Thanks,
Prateek

Hi
Protocol buffers is a way to efficiently serialize some data into a binary
representation.
You havent yet articulated what you want to performance test .
Example 1 - Perhaps your application has some objects that it used to save
to XML files. Someone has now come up with the idea of saving it using
protobuf. You are trying to verify that this is faster than what you have -
In this case there is no HTTP / No proxy - you are just testing out a java
api and you could just use a Java Sampler .
Example 2 - Perhaps your application is posting JSON data into a queue and
now someone has decided to change it to use protobuf. In this case you
still need to write some java code to get the binary payload and post that
to the queue - No HTTP/Proxy recording here either.
Example 3 : Perhaps your application is wanting to post protobuf to some
HTTP API and its really the performance number of the API that you want to
find out . You could record this , but in order to vary the data you would
need to write some java code (there is no record/replay for that java code).
and so on.
Read up on protobuf perhaps that will make some things more clearer.

Hi Deepak,
Requirement is to test Performance of apis created via Protobuf through
Jmeter. But since I don't have Json or Curl request , So I'm stuck how to
record these Protobuf supported apis via Jmeter's Http Proxy Server.
Thanks,
Prateek

Hi
not sure what your requirement is - However protobuf has a java api and you
can use that to generate the payload like any other java code that you need
to invoke. if you need to pass that payload in some request then that
should be possible too

Re: Proto requests via Jmeter
Posted by Deepak Shetty <sh...@gmail.com>.
Hi
I think you are asking 2 different questions here
a. How to generate a protobuf request in JMeter - That would need you to
use the Java API to generate the request -
https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/javatutorial
b. How to actually send it to the API - Assuming this is still HTTP based
then I think either you need to save a file and send that or use the HTTP
Raw request from jmeter plugins.
There isnt a way to convert JSON to protobuf in jmeter as far as I know(Im
assuming your dev team has already provided you the .proto files which
could be generated from JSON) and record and replay is not much use when
you are dealing with binary formats unless you want to replicate exactly
the same thing , no parameterisation or variations (almost never the case
in any testing automation).
regards
deepak

Proto requests via Jmeter
Posted by Prateek Dua <pr...@go-mmt.com.INVALID>.
Hi guys,
Any idea on handling Protobuf requests via Jmeter ? Our Organization got
shifted from Json to Proto for most of the apis request now .
So is there any convenient way to record Proto requests ?
Thanks,
Prateek
