Thrift API load test

Question

I am new into Apache Jmeter. Basically I want to load test our couple of thrift APIs but have no clue where to start with. It is in java where api takes 2 parameter and then send java object as response.

Any pointer would be very helpful.

Answer 1

You can use JSR223 Sampler + Groovy (add groovy-all.jar in jmeter/lib) and look at this client example, see NonblockingClient code for an example:

• http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2012/03/apache-thrift-quickstart-tutorial.html

Make your groovy code call a least the following at end:

SampleResult.setSuccessful(true/false)
SampleResult.setResponseCode("code")
SampleResult.setResponseMessage("message")

See:

• http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#JSR223_Sampler

And of course, ensure you add the required dependencies in jmeter/lib.
