Re: [Grinder-use] write login testing script discussion

[Philip A. <pa...@be...>]

The name of the key used to pass the password will be coming back to
you in the body of the previous response. E.g. that for request58.
You need to parse this body and grab the key from it.

Having variable form keys is most unusual, and The Grinder doesn't
have anything built in that will help you do this. You'll need to=20
write a jython function (probably using regular expressions). Your
code would then look something like:

def calculatePasswordKey(self, response):
  # TO DO

def page58(self):
 response =3D request5801.Get(...)
 self.passwordKey=3DcalculatePasswordKey(response)

def page59:
 # As before but with....
   NVPair(self.passwordKey, 'test'), ),


Regards,

Subject: [Grinder-use] write login testing script discussion

Hello,everbody.
Yesterday,I install a open source portal in my computer and I want to test =
its performance in localhost in order to compare it with that of other port=
als.I used Grinder 3.0 to do the test and at first I used TCPProxy to recor=
d the script of logining in the portal.
=20=20=20=20=20=20
The following content is part of the script recorded by TCPProxy,it loged m=
y logining in the portal twice times.

from above script,we can see that at first time I posted login ,the portal =
generated a name of the password text box in the login interface,and at sec=
ond time,the portal generated a new name for it,I have identified the passw=
ord text box name in red color and underlined.If I used it as test script,t=
he password text box name of NVPair will not conform with that of real test=
ing,Therefore,I can not use it as a test script.I have thought this questio=
n for a long time,but I have not found the mothod to solve it.
 Do you have any experience in testing such type web performance using Grin=
der? Please help me to solve it.Thank you for your kind attention
