We're in the initial stages of a large project, and have decided that some form of automated UI testing is likely going to be useful for us, but have not yet sorted out exactly how this is going to work... The primary goal is to automate a basic install and run-through of the app, so if a developer causes a major breakage (eg: app won't...
This is a "design/architecture" question and so you don't need to provide me technical details. I can find examples on the internet all day long that show how to run a xunit unit test, log test results, and how to show if it succeeds or fails but every example on the internet is hard coded and nobody shows examples of how you store your...

Is there a way to modularize JMeter tests. I have recorded several use cases for our application. Each of them is in a separate thread group in the same test plan. To control the workflow I wrote some primitives (e.g. postprocessor elements) that are used in many of these thread groups. Is there a way not to copy these elements into e...
