USAGE NOTES
This test framework has been implemented with Jakarta Jmeter. While Jmeter itself is a pure java application, this framework uses scripts which generally require an underlying linux machine.
...
- Run through the tests! Control-R, or "Run/Start" in the menus. Click on the "Assertion Results" at the bottom of the test plan to see what, if anything, is reporting errors. To see details on what calls are being made by each test element, expand its subtree and look at the "View Results Tree" element, which will give you send and received HTTP header data, response text from the server, and more. Other test elements can be inserted which log data, provide performance graphs, and much, much, much more.
- If jmeter is misbehaving: "tail -20f jmeter.out" to see what it's logging.
NON-INSTALLATION
If you:
1) have an X server
2) have ssh
3) are in cilantro@cilantro's .k5login
...then you can run "ssh -Y cilantro@cilantro.mit.edu", cd to the thalia
directory, and run stuff from there without installing it locally. Easy!
