CAS Stress with JMeter

[Daniel Cukier]

Does anybody already did Stress Test with CAS using JMeter?

I'm trying to simulate 500 simultaneous logins, but isn't working.

I use the HttpRequest sampler using 

 - path: /login

 - protocol: https

 - port number: 443

 - Send parameter with request: 

     - username: test

     - password: teste

     - _eventId: submit

The html file returned is the normal 'login page' html

Does anybody know what Im doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Daniel Cukier

Daniel,

Yes, I can help you there.  I use JMeter and have a couple of comprehensive tests, however I don't have any on me as I am out for the day.  Aside from sending you one of my own Monday, I will explain what is going on.  There are a couple of hidden form fields on the login form that you aren't capturing and retransmitting to the CAS server.  If you are using Firefox, you can download the Web Developer plugin and enable the "View Form Details" option and you can see them easily; otherwise you need to check out the source and look for "lt" and "_eventId".

If this isn't pressing, then please email me directly with a subject line like "Requesting copy of comprehensive JMeter stress test" and I will make sure to send you a copy Monday.

HTH,

There's a JMeter test attached to http://www.ja-sig.org/issues/browse/CAS-782 
  that we use for load testing at Virginia Tech.  You could easily  
customize it for your environment.

Hey Marvin,

Nice test; very much what I expected.  However it seems like you never handle logout as part of your test.  Am I right?  If so, is that intentional?

Any chance we can create a load/stress testing page in Confluence with some version of the script?

Might be useful.  What do you think?

Cheers,
Scott

That is correct.

Yes.  I created the test to stress ticket creation and investigate the  
registry cleaner behavior, where leaving tickets around in the  
registry was a _good_ thing.  I realize that a generalized test could  
or should include logout.

I like Scott's suggestion of putting a Wiki page up with some JMeter  
tests attached, and possibly some general considerations for testing.  
I'll put up a page on CASUM in the next few days with the test from  
CAS-782 attached unless someone has a suggestion for a more  
appropriate place.

Marvin,

I have created a couple of pages for testing and Apache Jmeter.  I took the
liberty of including the JMX script you attached to the JIRA issue as well
as provide some basic content and links.

http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/Testing
http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/Apache+JMeter

I have also included one of our testing scripts.

Thanks all! I'm using the jmx script on my server and it's working fine.

But I couldn't understand well what the test really tests. 

 - How many simultaneous users can I have acessing my servers?

 - How many page views / second?

You guys did a great job. Thanks!
