WebSocket plugin for Jmeter [closed]

Answer 1

Here is another WebSocket plugin for JMeter. It supports the RFC6455 (v13) of the WebSocket protocol.

Link: https://github.com/maciejzaleski/JMeter

Features:

• Supports HTTS/HTTPS (ws/wss) version of the WebSocket protocol
• Option to ignore SSL certificate errors
• Streaming allows for a single connection to remain open for the duration of the test
• Response has to match predefined regular expression
• Response timeout
• Response message backlog (build the Sampler response from multiple server messages)
• Connection could be closed if server sends a message matching predefined regular expression

I can`t comment previous post. But this plugin has one problem with concurency when running a large quantity of threads. I got this error:

[Problems]
 - Unexpected error: null
java.util.LinkedList$ListItr.checkForComodification(LinkedList.java:953)
java.util.LinkedList$ListItr.next(LinkedList.java:886)
JMeter.plugins.functional.samplers.websocket.ServiceSocket.getResponseMessage(ServiceSocket.java:125)
JMeter.plugins.functional.samplers.websocket.WebSocketSampler.sample(WebSocketSampler.java:156)

org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterThread.run(JMeterThread.java:257)
java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:744)

So I just replaced one line in the ServiceSocket.java:

protected Deque<String> responeBacklog = new LinkedList<String>();

with this line:

Queue<String> responeBacklog = new ConcurrentLinkedQueue<String>();

It solved my problem :)

Here is another (fairly new) JMeter WebSocket plugin: https://bitbucket.org/pjtr/jmeter-websocket-samplers.

See the readme for current features; it's still in active development.

Answer 4

If you are new to Jmeter you dont need to spend a lot of time learning the Jmeter UI and function to do the websocket load testing. We have a dedicated tool now to do load testing on websockets. It is named as Thor.

Thanks to the developers for making it simple, light weight and opensource.

Link in your question looks to be not for jmeter plugin but for proxying module for Apache http server.
Correct link seems to be https://github.com/kawasima/jmeter-websocket - jmeter plugin for WebSocket protocol.

To use it you have to:

• download project sources;
• build ApacheJMeter_WebSocket.jar using maven;
• place jar into $JMETER_HOME/lib/ext/ dir.

• ApacheJmeter_websocket-dist-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar - with dependencies.
