I'd like to use KitCAT to do some load testing. I see that there is a LoadRunner class in KitCAT for doing this. I understand the basic usage of the properties input file:

$ java org.echarts.test.sip.LoadRunner
org.echarts.test.sip.LoadRunner <propertyFileName>
Property file should have the following entries
TestCase - fully qualified method name of the JUnit test case
TestRate - test frequency
MaxIterations - Maximum # of iterations
$

The part that's not so clear is how to create the caller and callee uri's on-the-fly within the test case to go along w/ the load driver. We need unique uri's for concurrent test instances and reuse uri's for successive iterations within the same test instance.

I read in the paper "KitCAT - A _frame_work for Converged Application Testing" that this facility was used for load testing of CallVantage. Perhaps someone would be willing share a simple basic call example test case from there which demonstrates the dynamic endpt generation idiom.

Russ,

Sorry for the late response. One pattern that has worked for us is to name the agents in a test case _base_d on a counter:

Code: :

SIPAgent caller = createAgent("caller-"+currentCount); SIPAgent callee = createAgent("callee-"+currentCount);

The counter can be an AtomicInteger static field in the class containing the test case, which gets incremented in the constructor of that class:

Code: :

static AtomicInteger counter = new AtomicInteger(0); int currentCount; ... public MyTestCaseClass throws Exception {   ...   currentCount = counter.getAndIncrement();   ... } ...

Would this meet your needs?
