Viewlet added to documentation


http://grinder.sourceforge.net/g3/getting-started-viewlet.html

(340K, Flash required).

Let me know what you think and whether viewlets on other topics would
be of use.

Yes, you need to change your browser proxy settings to match the host
and port that the TCPSniffer is listening on (default is
localhost:8001).

Ahhh... are you particularly intersted in the "sniff-n-grind"
application? You haven't mentioned it until now. Its a server side
application that automates the use of the sniffer.

Most people don't use the sniff-n-grind application. Rather they just
use the TCPSniffer with -httpPluginFilter. With this filter the
output is directed to the terminal, so you normally run it with the
output redirected to a file:

 java net.grinder.TCPSniffer -proxy -httpPluginFilter > grinder.properties

RE: TCPSniffer and SSL

Hi Kyle,

Thanks for that. Unfortunately it still doesn't work. I've tried giving
the proxy a certificate and starting it with:

java -Djavax.net.debug=ssl net.grinder.TCPSniffer -proxy -ssl -keyStore
my_cert_for_the_proxy -keyStorePassword my_clever_password

When I point my browser to use local host port 8001 as proxy, I can see
all http urls but no https!! In the debud mode I don't see any errors
and I can see my certificate being loaded. This is what I get when I
start:

C:\grinder\grinder-tests\staging>java -Djavax.net.debug=ssl
net.grinder.TCPSniff
er -proxy -ssl -keyStore my_cert_for_the_proxy -keyStorePassword
my_clever_passw

Re: Servlet threading & concurrency with HttpSession

I'm using Grinder 2.8.6 and using WebLogic 7 as my servlet container.
I don't do anything at all with cookies.
I'll see what I can do in the upcoming weeks regarding further
investigation.
Right now, my priorities are off this project for a week or so.
I'll update further after more testing.
Blaine.

RE: TCPSniffer and SSL

I managed to solve the problem. I used Netscape 6.2 instead of IE and
assigned the http and https proxies, and it worked. Now I can use the
TCP snifter in proxy mode against https links. Did anyone get it working
with IE?!!! How?!

Anyway, just thought I'd let you know. Cheers

Using simple HTTP protocol, I was able to use any version of IE.
But with HTTPS protocol, here is what I have:
- I've had problems with IE 6.0 and IE 6.0 SP1.
- But it's possible to use IE 5.0 and IE 5.5 (both with and without 
services packs).

And the same behavior just happens to Grinder 2.8.6 and Grinder 3.0 (I've 
tested since beta 3, except this last one - beta 7).
Till now I haven't had time to investigate further... but I suppose MS has 
changed its browser to make it "faster"??!!

need help for grinder 3

Dear Madam/Sir:

We are using Grinder 3.0 as our test tool framework. We have 
some problems about it. Can you tell us some forum or 
discussion room addresses? 

Thanks a lot.

one question about grinder TCPProxy

Dear Madam/Sir,

We are using Grinder 3.0 as our test framework. We can 
correctly record a scenario between the browser and a local 
host web server and replay back the captured script file: 
httpscript.py.

We know how to record a scenario between the browser and a 
remote host through our company proxy server. (To do so, we 
have used grinder.TCPProxy as a browser proxy and put the 
remoteHost = realproxy.test.com and remotePort = 8080.) 
However, we cannot replay it back.

Appreciate any help for replaying back the scenario.

Zhou.
