[Htmlunit-user] Trying to test.....

[Dantes, E. <Ed....@gd...>]

Hi all,
   Ok, this is a straightforward question, and I hope there is a way to
resolve this.  I have written a JUnit test case and TestSuite using
HtmlUnit and JUnitPerf for load ramping.  Now running through the
application with one user was no problem whatsoever, though it had a ton
of JavaScript and DHTML elements, I was able to hack HtmlUnit to get it
to do what I wanted it to do.  My goal however is to simulate as many
users as I can, hoping ultimately to find a breaking point.  I ran two
users, with no problems but when I get to three, the program runs for
around 10-15 min, before timing out with an 'out of memory' error.
Earlier David suggested that I modify the JVM max heap, and which I did
: %java -Xmx512m -version...and to my surprise it ran much slower than
the previous and still gave me an out of memory error.  Also, this
application requires a login and username, and will not allow you to log
in with the same username and password, if already logged in, hence the
various testsuites: user1, user2, etc..I figure I should be able to do
this, since I can easily bring up 5 mozilla windows with the different
users and do what I need to do...Anyone have any tips or suggestions on
what I can do?, or is there another tool (open source, whatever) for
load simulating out there, that can help me with my problem..I honestly
dont think it is HtmlUnit itself, I might just need a new framework for
simulating loads...

Thanks for everyones help!

Thanks
