Loadtesting ajax applications based on jQuery -
Does anyone have any experience in testing the AJAX application load load? Especially javascript to run as their javascript library?
LoaderNear and NeoLoad are two load test applications that work on the Gwy layer. But none of which supports the jquery library
For other load testing tools, such as jmeter, mill and other HTML layer tools. They simply do not cut it because you need to maintain application logic in your tests.
Selenium, however, uses real browsers, which can be an option with the Selenium grid (see also www.browsermob.com), but then locally to set up a test environment Lots of hardware is needed.
The last time I saw loader and neolod both work on the HTTP layer, not on the GUI layer. Just because a device works on an HTTP layer does not mean that you need to repeat the application logic in the test. Smart testers, such as load testers (from webperformance.com), can configure several testcards automatically with small user intervention. We use it often with AJAX sites, although I have not seen specially on JQuery use cases.
