Hello world for jmeter

A very basic example of Jmeter test plan based on (http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/build-web-test-plan.html)

Installation

Jmeter

sudo apt-get install jmeter jmeter-http

Ruby API requirements

sudo apt-get install ruby
sudo gem install sinatra

Go API requirements

sudo apt-get install golang
cd jmeter_hello_world
gobuild api

Based on (http://soryy.com/blog/2014/not-another-go-net-http-tutorial/)

Running JMeter tests

Fire up an API. Both examples run on port 8080 so you can only run one at a time. Both API implementations are equivalent providing a \random endpoint which takes an optional size parameter. If the size parameter is missing a random number of elements will be returned 0 < x < 200

1. Ruby api

   ruby api.rb

2. Go

   ./api

To test your api is running, in another shell run

curl localhost:8080/random?size=2

Jmeter

Start JMeter

jmeter

Once Jmeter has fired up, load up the test plan (File -> Open) and select 'SimpleTestPlan.jmx' To run the test do 'Run -> Start' and navigate to the 'Graph Results' in the tree on the left to observe the test performance.
