Appli catio n Scenar io Co nf igur ation A JMeter test plan must be created to simulate the requests sent to the serv er in the scenario. There are two approaches which are generally used to create a test plan: JMeter ’ s Proxy and Badboy . For JMeter , see the JMeter Reference Manual located at: http://jakarta.
Figur e 1 0 JM eter Summar y Report Benc hmark R esults T able 8 shows the requests per second and average response time of the scenario described in the previous section. The response time is defined as the time it takes the T omcat server to send the object of an HTTP request back to the client.
Figur e 1 1 JM eter Application Scenario T est Results – Requests per Second Figur e 1 2 JMeter Application Scenario T est Results – Response Time Summary The performance of the T omcat Application serv er is impacted by several factors such as network throughput, system processing capability , concurrent user connections, and so on.
