Load testing on tomcat
I wish to load test my web application that is running on a tomcat server. Has anybody had experiences with JMeter? We have lots of dynamic parameters to set in our requests and JMeter looked like a fine solution to use, but I have noticed some weird results using it so far. First off it's a java app so it eats up lots of resources just running the test software and I have doubts that the software itself is showing results that are slower than they should be. I have tried another software (a windows c++ program) which shows me faster results... Any suggestions? Should I stay away from JMeter?? What other software would you recommend?
I have created a bunch of users in my database and would wish to simulate having people using different logins in our app (because basicly we save information on users and in their sessions also).
Thanks!
