Conducting Test using Remote Agent.


SP Agent is the machine which is used to generate virtual user load. We have
load test being carried in our project which is to be simulated from client
environment This is to avoid the network delays as users of this app would be
in client environment load should be simulated form client environment. (In fact
we observed difference in response time as high as 10 sec when we compared
two test run. One using offshore Agent and other using onsite Agent.)

For this we got a machine in Client and we would connect to this machine
through vpn. Hence this would be used as Agent while we would control
execution of test from offshore. To be able to do this we got two ports 19200
and 19202 opened on this machine from client environment . Opening of these
two ports got us going with performance test.

Verify email confirmation using Selenium WebDriver

Note: If you are new to java and selenium then start with selenium java training videos .   How to Verify Email Confirmation Using Selenium 4 and JavaMail (2026 Guide) Email confirmation is a critical part of most registration flows — account activation, password reset, multi-factor authentication, and onboarding. Every automation engineer eventually faces the same challenge: How do you verify an email confirmation link inside a Selenium test without making it slow and flaky? The wrong instinct is to automate Gmail's UI with Selenium. It's fragile, slow, and breaks constantly. The right approach: Use Selenium for browser automation Use JavaMail (IMAP) to read the email directly Extract the confirmation link Continue the test in Selenium Why Not Automate Gmail UI With Selenium? Automating the Gmail UI means logging in, searching, clicking a message, and parsing content from a third-party interface that changes frequently. This leads to: Flaky...

Selenium Tutorial: Ant Build for Selenium Java project

Ant is a build tool which could be used to have your tests running either from command line or from Hudson CI tool. There is detailed documentation available for ant here but probably you need to know only a little part of it for you selenium tests. The essentials which are needed to know are: Project Target (ant execution point and collection of tasks) Tasks (could be as simple as compilation) And there would usually be following targets for Selenium tools - setClassPath - so that ant knows where you jar files are loadTestNG - so that you could use testng task in ant and use it to execute testng tests from ant init - created the build file clean - delete the build file compile - compiles the selenium tests run - executes the selenium tests Here is my project set up for ant -

Recording curl request with JMeter Recorder

Just use https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/curl.html and no JMeter proxy etc needed : )   Though it is quite east to convert curl requests to corresponding JMeter request. At times you might be stuck with issue like I faced when uploading a file with  JMeter HTTP request In a gist I kept getting 404 error when using REStful service to upload a file. After days of investigations I found it that I should be using HTTP request implementation java and not HttpClient4. JMeter HTTPs Test Script recorder was of great help to debug this issue. This post describes the process of recording curl request through JMeter HTTPs Test Script recorder. If you have never used JMeter HTTPs Test Script recorder then create a new JMeter Plan and under WorkBench > Add > Non Test Element > HTTP(s) Test Script Recorder.  Specify Global Setting > Port as 8090 If we were using browser to record web application then we would configure its proxy to 127.0.0.1 (Since http...
