How to use JMeter to test a Webservices
La mayoría de las herramientas generadoras de carga, primeramente realizan una grabación de las peticiones HTTP, estas peticiones luego deben ser manipuladas para que nuestro script sea ejecutado exitosamente. Entender las características básicas del protocolo HTTP, nos ayudará a llevar a cabo pruebas de performance más completas.
Most load generating tools first record HTTP requests and then these HTTP requests must be handled to get the script to be executed successfully. Understanding the basic characteristics of the HTTP protocol will aid us in executing more wholesome performance tests.
