JMETER - Web Socket Testing

How test the Web Socket through Web Socket plugin for Jmeter?

 1. How to add the PLUGIN?

1.Download the Jmeter from the following Link. Download Binaries(.zip)

http://jmeter.apache.org/download_jmeter.cgi

2.Download the following Web Socket Project 

https://github.com/maciejzaleski/JMeter-WebSocketSampler

3.Unzip and import the Project as Maven project to your work space in Eclipse. Run the Maven command to package and install.

4.New jar will be created in the Project. Copy the JMeterWebSocketSampler-1.0.2-SNAPSHOT.Jar and paste it in apache-jmeter/bin/ext folder. Restart the Jmeter. After restarting the Jmeter you can notice websocket sampler as shown in below snapshot.

5. This Jmeter Plug-in supports RFC6455 version of Web Socket protocol. 

Features:

a) Supports HTTS/HTTPS (ws/wss) version of the WebSocket protocol.

b) Option to ignore SSL certificate errors.

c) Streaming allows for a single connection to remain open for the duration of the test.

d) Response has to match predefined regular expression 

e) Response timeout.

f) Response message backlog (build the Sampler response from multiple server messages).

g) Connection could be closed if server sends a message matching predefined regular expression.

6. Open the Application in Chrome Browser for which you need to test web socket. Presss F12 and go Web Console. Click on Network, and again click on WebSockets. Refresh the Page. You will be able to see Web Socket in left panel and under Frames; you will be able to see the Request and Response

(example: Request as 2probe and Response as 3 probe).

7. You may have to replicate these requests in Jmeter to establish the web socket connection.

8. Let see how to send request and Response in Jmeter using Web Socket Plugin.

9. In our Application Web Socket has not been implemented directly, Socket.IO Libraries in turn create the Web Sockets. Also, Application maintains a session. So I will be using an HTTP Request initially and extracting the Socket ID.

10. Fill the Header referring the Browser Web Console.

11. Add the Web Socket Sampler.

Parameters:

a. Connection ID: Pass the Session ID as parameter, which was extracted in previous request.

b. Time Outs : You check the Application Timeout or mention random and try executing.

c. Streaming Connection: Select this check box, as we are sending the streaming data.

d. Request Data: Example: 2probe. Imitate what all the requests needed to establish the web socket connection.

e. Web Socket Response Pattern : Don’t ever forget to mention this pattern (.*). If any one know any other pattern please let me know.

f. Close Connection Pattern : (6:::*) I mentioned these pattern only by trail and error method. If any body knows please let me know.

g. Message Backlog: Mention 1000.

h. Path: Here, In the browser transport=polling, have been replaced as transport=websocket.

12 The Web Socket remains the connection open for next requests. We can send other requests using this connection open.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10. TABS / New Window

When Browser opens in a new window or in a new tab, Web Driver cannot shift the control to the new Window/ Tab. We need to collect the window handles in a page. Whenever a new window opens we need to iterate and shift to the latest window handle.

TABS/New Window - 1

Steps to iterate through the Window Handles

1. Create Driver for any Browser(Mozilla)

2. Go to the URL
3. Collect Window Handles through Set<String>
4. Create an iterator to iterate through Window Handles.
5. At First iterator will not be pointing to any Window Handle, only First increment Points to First Window Handle, Second increment Points to second iterator.


Set<String> windowHandles = driver.getWindowHandles();
Iterator<String> it = windowHandles.iterator();
while(it.hasNext())
{
System.out.println(it.next());
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TABS/New Window - 2

When two browsers are opened and Web Driver need to shift the control from Parent Window to Child Window. 

Please follow the steps mentioned below.

1. Create Driver for any Browser(Mozilla)

2. Go to the URL
3. Collect Window Handles through Set<String>
4. Create an iterator to iterate through Window Handles.
5. Increment the iterator and store the Window Handle as Parent.
6. Increment the iterator and store next Window Handle as Child.
7. Switch to Child Browser using Child Window Handle.


Set<String> windowHandles = driver.getWindowHandles();
Iterator<String> it = windowHandles.iterator();


String parentBrowser= it.next();
String childBrowser = it.next();
driver.switchTo().window(childBrowser);

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TABS/New Window - 3

When second browser is closed/you close it and Web Driver need to shift the control from Child Window to Parent Window. 

Please follow the steps mentioned below.

1. Create Driver for any Browser(Mozilla)

2. Go to the URL
3. Collect Window Handles through Set<String>
4. Create an iterator to iterate through Window Handles.
5. Increment the iterator and store the Window Handle as Parent.
6. Increment the iterator and store next Window Handle as Child.
7. Switch to Child Browser using Child Window Handle.
8. When Child browser get closed, Switch from Child browser to Parent Window.


Set<String> windowHandles = driver.getWindowHandles();
Iterator<String> it = windowHandles.iterator();

String parentBrowser= it.next();
String childBrowser = it.next();
driver.switchTo().window(childBrowser);
Thread.sleep(3000);

driver.close(); //close the current window(Child Browser)
driver.switchTo().window(parentBrowser); //Switch to Parent Browser

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

11. CALENDAR popups

Calendar PopUp - 1

Normal Calender(current month) Popup can be handled in the following way.

1. Create Driver for any Browser(Mozilla)

2. Go to the URL
3. Fetch the Calender element and click to open.
4. Fetch the required date through xpath and click.


/*IRCTC calendar*/
driver.findElement(By.id("calendar_icon1")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='CalendarControl']/table[tbody[tr[td[text()='October 2012']]]]/descendant::a[text()='5']")).click();

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Calendar PopUp - 2 (Customized wait)

 In a Calender if we want to click on future month which is not currently displayed, we need to click on next link until we get the required month.
           This can be done by writing Customized wait. Check for particular date element in each month, if not found move to next month.

/*makemytrip calendar*/
driver.get("http://www.makemytrip.com/");
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.findElement(By.id("deptDateRtripimgExact")).click(); //find Calendar
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(0, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
boolean flag=true;
while(flag){
  try {
WebElement el = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(@class,'ui-datepicker-group') and descendant::span[text()='March']]/descendant::a[text()='5']")); // Required future date
if(el !=null)   //Check if the required date element is found or not
       {
el.click(); // if required Date is found, then click  the date
flag=false;
}
    } 
catch (Exception e) { //Catches exception if no element found

19. Page Onload authentication

Sometimes when you are Automating Web pages, you may come across Page onload Authentication window. This window is not java popup/div. It is windows popup. Selenium directly cannot handle this windows popup.

Hence we use Autoit sowftware tool. Through Selenium we can handle this situation using Autoit.

Please follow the steps mentioned below.

1.Download Autoit from the following URl

  ( http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/ )

2.Install downloaded software.

3. Open Script Editor

   Start=>ProgramFiles=>AutoIt =>SciTE Script Editor.

4.Open Object Identifier.

  Start=>ProgramFiles=>AutoIt =>AutoIt Window Info.

5.Drag and Drop finder tool in AutoIt Window Info, to the Window you need to     identify.

6.Collect the Title Name of window from (AutoIt Window Info.)

7.Write the Script in the Editor.

----------------------------------------------------AUTOIT CODE-----------------------------------------------------

WinWaitActive("Authentication Required")

Send("admin")

Send("{TAB} admin{TAB} {ENTER}")

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8.Save the file as default save.(Authentication1.exe)

9.RUN/Compile the SCRIPT, it creates an exe.

10.Mention the exe path in the Program before creation of Driver.

EXAMPLE:


Process P = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("D:\\java_prj\\SELENIUM WEBDRIVER\\AUTOIT\\Authentication1.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://192.168.1.1");
