Using JMeter to test a Flex/Spring web app

Question

i have a Flex/Spring web project where the client is a flexapp that runs in the browser and the server components(Spring/Hibernate) runs in tomcat. The compile dcluient files also obviously reside in the tomcat server. i want to use JMeter to do some performance testing on the application. i am new to JMeter and don't know how to connect the JMeter with the application. From what i understand i cant use the http request based test cases as i am using flex. Any reference will help.

What kind of plugins do i need on the JMeter instance? How to configure JMeter to be able to call the application via flex?

Answer 1

You will need a third-party JMeter plugin.
