Changes:
Version 1.5.1
- Fixed bug that caused cookies not to be read if header name case not as expected.
- Clone entries before sending to sampler - prevents relocations from messing up information across threads
- Minor bug fix to convenience dialog for adding paramters to test sample. Bug prevented entries in dialog from appearing in test sample.
- Added xerces.jar to distribution
- Added junit.jar to distribution and created a few tests.
- Started work on new framework. New files in cvs, but do not effect program yet.
- Fixed bug that prevent HTTPJMeterThread from delaying according to chosen timer.
Version 1.5
- Abstracted out the concept of the Sampler, SamplerController, and TestSample.
A Sampler represents code that understands a protocol (such as HTTP, or FTP, RMI,
SMTP, etc..). It is the code that actually makes the connection to whatever is
being tested.
A SamplerController represents code that understands how to organize and run a group
of test samples. It is what binds together a Sampler and it's test samples and runs them.
A TestSample represents code that understands how to gather information from the
user about a particular test. For a website, it would represent a URL and any
information to be sent with the URL.
- The UI has been updated to make entering test samples more convenient.
- Thread groups have been added, allowing a user to setup multiple test to run
concurrently, and to allow sharing of test samples between those tests.
- It is now possible to save and load test samples.
- ....and many more minor changes/improvements...
