I need to load test a mendix application .
The requirement is - 10 users should be able to perform file upload function simultaneously .
But the test should be like real life situation where 10 users will use 10 different machines, accounts and browsers. Basically no shared resources.
I have written Jmeter webdriver sampler and trying to setup on multiple VMs in distributed way.
Is there any other better option / or better tool
You may use commercial solutions like Redline13 to distribute the users across the agents (i.e. 10 different machines)
You can include the file names associated with the users in a CSV file.
Uses can be uniquely distributed using the split feature Filename should be picked from the CSV and include in the HTTP Request ${FILE_NAME}. You can upload all the files (to be uploaded) associated with the used.

We are in the process of building a website from scratch from an existing website. The web page is an identical copy, and as the web page contains many pages we need a way to compare content between the sites. It is of course possible to do manually, but it takes both a lot of time and entails a risk of human errors.
I have seen that there are services that offer this by inputting two URLs which are then analyzed and where discrepancies are presented. However, these cannot be used as our test environment is local (built in Sitecore).
Is there a way to solve this without making our test environment available online (which is not possible)? For example, does software exist for this, or alternatively some service where you can compare a web page that is online with one that is local?
Note that we're only looking for content comparison (not visual).
(Un)fortunately there's many ways to do this, but fortunately there are some simple ones.
What I would do is:
Get a list of URLs for each site. If the Sitemap is exhaustive, then you could use that, if it's not you might want to run some Sitecore Powershell to get the lists.
Given the lists (from files, or Sitecore API or something), write a program to visit each URL, get the text of the page after it's done rendering, and save it to disk (something like Selenium is good for this and you can use any language). You'll want some folder structure like host/urlpart/urlpart/pagename.txt, basically the same as your content tree.
Use some filesystem diff program like WinMerge to compare the two folders
This is quick and dirty, but a good place to start.
I'm trying to run more than one sample at the same time in a single guest VM, for efficiency reasons, something that will be even more efficient than the distributed cuckoo solution, or using a few guest VMs.
For example, to submit a few URLs, so they will be opened in a few tabs(in IE or FF) in Cuckoo, so I won't need to run a clean VM for each URL.
Then, if any malicious activity is detected in any of the URLs, I'll find the malicious URL, and will make a deeper inspection of its activity using all other cuckoo plugins and modules, etc.
Can you think of a way to make it using cuckoo? or any workaround?
My use-case is that I have A LOT of samples, but only very few are malicious, so to run a VM for every one of them would be a waste of resources.
Cuckoo monitors malwares activity in system, record them and create report in a language like JSON. if you try several suspicious links probably malware in one VM, you cant track which part of JSON report (features) belong to which link (possibility malware). I believe you need to run different suspicious links/files in different VM. you can run few VM at the same time though.
I set CSV file in jmeter via CSV data Set Config this file contains 6 usernames and passwords.
What should be number of Threads in Thread Group page.
Also what should i do if i wanted to check with 100 users?
Should i increase number of users in my CSV file or should i use number of thread?
Answer really depends on what your test does and which load you want to inject.
But to make a realistic test, your CSV file should have as many logins as you have Virtual Users (threads in JMeters).
And you should ensure that 2 threads never use the same user (if your application does not accept it).
I have been given a task configure 1000 of servers with some simple data. Lets say I need to login to server (linux or windows) and setup the ntp server. I need to come up with some kind of automation framework using perl. I have some ideas and want to get more.
Here is my thought process:
a) Since there are 1000s of servers, definitely the framework should be able to read in a csv file so all inputs can be provided as apposed to single input.
b) Since there are so many servers, I have to find a way to do things in parallel. I cant go server by server in a sequential way
c) I should have some output file that shows the results of all the servers that I successfully configured, servers that failed. That way I can compare input file and output file and generate a report
Should I consider anything else in my framework ?
How can I do parallel processing using perl ?
Even if you want to stick with Perl, it looks like there are already some alternatives available that would keep you from implementing another framework from scratch.
Check out the comments from http://my.opera.com/cstrep/blog/2010/05/14/puppet-fabric-and-a-perl-alternative for a couple options.
I have a Report Generator which is an intranet web application generates some reports. There are about 100 reports. Those reports are of PDF and Excel type. And I want to ensure that all these reports are generated without any issue. This is a daily job.
Each report takes an average of 2 min. Manual checking process takes 200 min.
As this is a testing process and not bothered about the contents in the files I want to automate the process.
We are using Selenium test cases to test our web application.
Is there any way to Save these reports on my location disk using Selenium ?
To answer your question, no. Browsers won't allow it, unless a user chooses to upload. But even if there is a way, i would advise against using it.
Even if you can do this by any means its HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED
This will be a huge security threat and it won't be allowed. Javascript is inside a security sandbox and won't allow these kind of things.
What if the server is sending a potentially dangerous file that might affect the client system?
See JavaScript security
At best, you could display the file download prompt. The browser's security (and common sense :)) won't allow you to do anything more. If you absolutely must do unsupervised file downloads, you could use some kind of ActiveX, or a Java applet.
