Video Series 'Load Testing the SAP Mobile Platform'

We have prepared a series of videos to introduce you to and help you with Load Testing the SAP Mobile Platform.

The series is split into 4 parts.

• 'Introduction' provides you with an overview into the topic of Load Testing, different tools and different kind of apps with distinct testing requirements.
• 'Mostly Offline Apps' and 'Mostly Online Apps' explain how to use HP LoadRunner for load testing Replication Based Synchronization apps (RBS) and Hybrid Web Container (HWC) & On-line Data Proxy (ODP) respectively.
• 'JMeter' focuses on testing mostly offline apps (RBS) with exactly that - the Apache JMeter tool.
  Apache JMeter is open source, more information about this tool can be found here.

Load Testing 'Mostly Offline' (RBS) applications with LoadRunner and JMeter is supported as of Sybase Unwired Platform (SUP) 2.1.2, including the SAP Mobile Platform (SMP) 2.3. We will refer to all as the SAP Mobile Platform.

In this part, we discuss what the open source tool JMeter is and what it does.

Load testing with JMeter is described in the videos below, and documented in a separate How-To Guide. (new)

This How-To Guide contains the code, which is used in the videos, in the appendix and is needed to complete the tutorial.(new)

In the videos, we explain how to create a Mobile Business Object, built a C# Mini App out of the generated code, and how to prepare it for usage in JMeter.

The series concludes with a demonstration of how to perform the actual load test.
