Need advice with simulating a thousand logins

PostPosted: Tue Jun 16, 2015 9:10 am

Hi all:

We just want to run 1000 simultaneous logins, but that has to be done with separate login credentials for each user.

Our tool won't let the same user log in twice ... that's our snag in running our test.

What do you recommend?

Thanks

Thanks for asking us VincentL.

First, to get 1000 simultaneous users you will need to use 10 separate user accounts, each one obtaining 100 browser-users.

Each user's screen might look like this with 100 browsers running in parallel:

The easy way to provide separate credentials to each user will be to make the basic playback script show parameters such as $NAME and $PASSWORD.

Then, you code the specific account data into the LoadTest Script, by adding these kinds of parameter settings to your _eValid commands:

$NAME=Name001 $PASSWORD=password001
$NAME=Name002 $PASSWORD=password002
$NAME=Name003 $PASSWORD=password003
$NAME=Name004 $PASSWORD=password004
...

These parameters go into the _eValid command as explained in this manual page:
