Timing the execution of each step in JUnit

Struggling with a task for the past 2 days that involves running a JUnit test on JMeter. Here's the code snippet:

public class LoadTest5 extends TestCase {
private WebDriver driver;

public LoadTest5(){}

public LoadTest5(String testName){
    super(testName);
}

@BeforeClass
public void setUp() throws Exception {
    super.setUp();
    driver = new FirefoxDriver();
    driver.get("link"); //link hidden for privacy
}


@Test
public void testTestLoad() throws InterruptedException {
    // Test steps here
}

@AfterClass
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
    super.tearDown();
    driver.quit();
}

}

Planning to run this test in 5 threads in JMeter and need to record execution times for each step, such as the login step:

// Login Step
driver.findElement(By.id("loginForm:authLogin")).sendKeys("LoadTest5");
driver.findElement(By.id("loginForm:authPassword")).sendKeys("Abc123");
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
driver.findElement(By.id("loginForm:btnLogin")).click;

How can I track and write execution times for each step to separate .csv files when dealing with multiple tests? Any suggestions on accomplishing this in JMeter and generating graphical results?

Answer №1

My recommendation is to divide your actions into individual JUnit Requests, such as:

  • setUp Thread Group
    • JUnit Request - Set up FirefoxDriver(s)
  • Main Thread Group
    • JUnit Request - Navigate to Login Page
    • JUnit Request - Log In
    • JUnit Request - Log Out
  • tearDown Thread Group
    • Junit Request - Close Firefox Driver

You could also consider utilizing the WebDriver Sampler plugin for seamless integration of JMeter and Selenium. This way, you can easily make code changes within JMeter without manual recompilation and split your tests into separate samplers more efficiently.
