jmeter Test Plan against a Swing App Client?
Hello jmeter crowd, does anyone out there in jmeter-land have any background using Jmeter against a Swing based client application? I have done a lot of browser proxy Test Plan building but nothing with a Java Swing Client as the target. Comments, rants and raves welcomed. Thanks, David.
Yet some, not wise, go to the other side of the globe, to barbarous and unhealthy regions, and devote ten or twenty years, in that they may live,-that is, keep comfortably warm,- and die in New England at last.

There are plenty of Proxy Recorders; indeed you should be able to use
the JMeter Proxy Recorder to capture the traffic between the GUI and
the servlet.
This assumes that you can tell the GUI app to use a proxy. If not,
then you could use a protocol analyser such as Wireshark to capture
the traffic, and create a test plan from it manually.
This would allow you to use JMeter to test the servlet - i.e. JMeter
would pretend to be the GUI app.
But you cannot use JMeter to test the GUI app directly.

Hello,
You could try marathon which can test swing applications.

Hello Sebb, thanks for the reply. I did not give complete details: I have a gui app that is using the HttpClient API to connect to a Servlet. Maybe somebody has had a similar situation or work-around. Could a proxy be built for something like this similar to the Browser proxy? Please advise, David.
