JMeter

In part 1 we discussed Jmeter configuration.

In this part, we'll go over EC2 configuration

 

We’ll be using Amazon’s cloud computing service (aka EC2/S3).

I’ll be assuming you already have an account with Amazon. If you don’t, create one, and save the cert-XXX.pem and pk-XXX.pem key files.

A while back, a client needed to stress test his application.
Since I had some experience with JMeter before, and was eager to try out Amazon’s EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud), this was the setup I offered.
Turns out it worked remarkably well.


Detailed explanation and utility files/scripts follows…
In part 1 we'll discuss Jmeter configuration in detail.
In part 2 we'll go over the configuration procedure of EC2, and how to run the test on a distributed environment.

JMeter was my first and current choice, I haven't tried out any other applications when it comes to load testing.

I bumped into this BLog, its writer is trying to see which one is better (from the Grinder side) JMeter or the Grinder.

The reason I was a bit curious about The Grinder is because GrinderStone 2.0.1 is released, I hope I'll have some spare time to check it out.
