Object serialization and the JMeter proxy
I have been assigned the task of load testing our entire suite of
applications. We use html, jsp, and applets. Our applet communication is
done mainly via URLConnections. We serialize a lot of objects using
ObjectOutputStreams.
What would be my best approach to setting up the test?
I really would like to use the JMeter proxy and am able to 'see' the
serialized object in the post portion of the analysis but the object is not
making it to the server.
If I cannot use the proxy is my best bet to output the objects to files to
send. If so can I somehow automate this (we have a very large and complex
applications and hand coding all the requests would be a nightmare).
Thanks in advance!

OK, I see. That's unfortunate.
I don't suppose that there is a publicly accessible URL that could be
used to debug this?

Re: Object serialization and the JMeter proxy
Posted by billf5293 <bf...@hmstn.com>.
Thanks for the reply.
I am in the process of setting up the tests (have not actually run any
tests).
The proxy records the request from my applet and I can 'see' the serialized
object in the post portion of the request but the proxy is not passing the
object to the server correctly causing an error. In other words, the
application will not run correctly through the proxy.
On a side note I am also researching The Grinder as an option so if anyone
has experience with a similar scenerio please let me know.
Thanks.

JMeter proxy or perhaps BadBoy.

Are you saying that the JMeter proxy works OK with the browser, but
when re-running the test it does not work?
Or does the proxy record the request but that does not make it to the server?

Another possibility might be to use one of the browser addons that
capture the traffic, or a standalone proxy.
There are some pages on the JMeter Wiki about these (does not seem to
available just at present - I think there was some server reconfig due
to happen today)
