Testing applet-servlet communications

[srikanth peddireddy <sr...@yahoo.co.in>]

Hi All,
 
I have some problem/doubt regarding testing applet.
Say one of my web pages contains an applet which communicates with a servlet using HttpUrlConnection (means this communication will be like  HTTP request response )
So though Jmeter is not capable of executing applets, I can simulate the applet actions (to some extent) by calling that servlet from my test plan (ie adding a http sampler with required params).
But the problem is , that servlet will never close the connection and it will keep on pumping some data over that connection unless user closes the window containing applet.
As response is never commited back compltely by servlet, I think Jmeter will not recognise or record the response for this request.
But Iwant to load test my app by simulating the case where number of real users opening the page containing the Applet (and there by want to see what happens to my app if i keep on pumping the data like this with out closing connection and keeping the servlet thread alive for ever )
 
Any inputs on how to test such an application.
 
regards
Srikanth Peddireddy
