I am writing a load test for my application.
I would like to simulate the following steps:
- login
- visit several pages
- submit a form within the website
I first wrote the login and visit several pages and run them successfully (no errors). When I added the code to submit form, I was getting '404/Not Found error' for the Submit Abstract transaction.
I am grateful to anyone who can provide me direction on how to solve this.
I wrote this test script using ruby then execute to convert it to .jmx file which I use to run headless test in cli.
code for login and visit several pages:
require 'ruby-jmeter'
test do
threads count: 100, rampup: 60, loops: 10, duration: 120 do
defaults domain: 'myapp.herokuapp.com', protocol: 'https'
cookies policy: 'rfc2109', clear_each_iteration: true
transaction 'Page Load Tests' do
user_defined_variables [{name: 'email', value: 'example@example.com'}, {name: 'password', value: 'Pass_w0rd'}]
visit name: 'Visit Login', url: '/users/sign_in' do
extract name: 'csrf-token', xpath: "//meta[@name='csrf-token']/@content", tolerant: true
extract name: 'csrf-param', xpath: "//meta[@name='csrf-param']/@content", tolerant: true
extract name: 'authenticity_token', regex: 'name="authenticity_token" value="(.+?)"'
end
end
http_header_manager name: 'X-CSRF-Token', value: '${csrf-token}'
submit name: 'Submit login', url: '/users/sign_in',
fill_in: {
'${csrf-param}' => '${csrf-token}',
'user[email]' => '${email}',
'user[password]' => '${password}',
'authenticity_token' => '${authenticity_token}'
}

visit name: 'My Profile Page', url:'/users/2/participations/1/profile'
