LoadTest in Windows Based application - ajax

I would like to do load testing in windows based application for a webservice. I will be calling a WCF Service from Windows Application which in turn calls the webservice to retrieve the results. It will accept input xml and outputs response xml.
How can I do load testing by using for loops in an asynchronous way. I don't want to use any load testing tools.
The Client reports that the "Record does not exist" is coming sometimes. But for me it is working fine. I would like to reproduce the result.
Currently I am sequentially writing the response xml to a text file. I would like to need this as asynchronous.
UPDATE:
I want to switch over from windows based application to web based application to do load test with Ajax. I would like to know how to write the Ajax code for input xml and get response xml in the form of text files

Make sure your WCF service supports multiple threads.
Generate proxy with asynchronous methods.
Spawn a lot of Begin[YourMethodName] function calls on your proxy object.

Dynamic update Label with response from RestAPI like ajax in tkinter

I am writing a tkinter app, which will be client for Web Application . I need a Label field, which need to dynamically updated from the response from a Rest API provided by the Web Application.
The Rest API call should be asynchronous and it should be continously polling the RESTAPI and when ever the value changes, the Label Value should change. (Like Ajax call in Web Application)
I have some other buttton and all in tha app.
I am able to find a solution for the same. Request to provide a solution. I am stuck in the development because of the same.
You can use
label.config(text="desired text from response") from inside a function which polls the desired endpoint and extracts the appropriate text. The call will need to be in a function kicked off in a thread to not block the GUI.

Send custom info with WebBrowser control

i have the following problem:
i need to send some custom info with every request made by a WebBrowser control. For example one of the infos is the used app version.
Now i have already read here that it is impossible to set custom headers for a WebBrowser control.
I have already tried to intercept all requests and perform them on my own with a WebClient (or HttpWebRequest). It partially works but is very buggy and often throws errors.
Any other ideas how to send the custom infos with every request that is made by the WebBrowser control?
Is the web server you are interacting with your own? Could you just add a query string parameter for all the data you want? Something like
http://yourwebsite/YourPage.aspx?version=2
Then you'd be able to process it on the server, either during that request in the aspx page, or via the logfiles for the web server.
I suspect that as you can't modify the content that gets sent directly from the WebBrowser and that intercepting every call and acting as a proxy for every request, while still maintaining all browser functionality may be too cumbersome.
Instead I'd suggest sending an additional request with just the additional information you want to record every time you make a request.
That could lead to a lot of overhead so it might be easier to send this once and then pass a hash of it, or some other identifying key to the webpage (as a querystring parameter) on the first request so it can reconcile the 2 pieces of information. Assuming that you are in control of the web server you could then have the web server set that hash/key as a cookie so it would be passed again with subsequent request from the control.

How JMeter tests web application

I made load test on my web application with JMeter using HTTP Proxy. In HTTP Request I insert some data which I want to change. After load test when I go to the web page the page was without changes and I get all results(graph and table). Is that test real or not? Because was without page (data) changes?
Use the "tree view" LISTENER to see what request you sent to your web application. That will tell you if Jmeter was sending the new data, or just sending what you recorded. If Jmeter sent new data, then your application probably has a problem. If Jmeter sent the old recorded data, then you need to update your script by going to the request and changing the parameters.

Ajax vs webservices

what is different between ajax and webservices. Anybody provide with some examples?
It's nonsensical to compare these things.
"Ajax" is a process that occurs in the browser. It is the act of calling some local server-side page, without refreshing the "main" viewing area, and then doing various things with that result (grabbing the data, making changes, changing the existing DOM (adding elements), whatever).
Webservices are a Serverside-thing that allows you to call methods, in your code, but have that call actually go to a remote machine. The call to the Webservice is generally also made server-side.
The term "Ajax" is generally used :
When the request is sent by a browser (client-side) to a server
When the transfered data is XML or JSON or HTML.
The word "webservice" is generally used :
When the request is sent by a server to another server, without a browser being involved
When the transfered data is SOAP -- at least when it's a SOAP webservice ^^ (Opposed to REST, for instance, which generally doesn't imply SOAP)
But I'd say that Ajax is basically some specific kind of webservice.
i think ajax and web services are kind of similar, here is why i think so.
as i understood it, in your app sometimes you will have to implement an "API" which has several useful functions. and it is those functions which are called "web services". these 'functions' acts in response to the http requests and "does" something with the data provided.
in ajax siimilar kind of work happens as well,just through javascript thats it.
so, to sum it all up, an API has 'web services' within it, and ajax behaves like 'web services'. in this manner, yes i think it is correct to call ajax and web services similar.

How to call Java web service (JAX-WS) from AJAX?

I am developing java web services (JAX-WS) to insert data into mysql DB and retrieve it. This web service has two methods i.e. fetchFromDB and insertIntoDB. Services seems to be running fine when I test them using netbeans IDE.
Address: /CalculatorWSService
WSDL: /CalculatorWSService?wsdl
but when I try to access it using AJAX's xmlHttpRequest object by providing url http://localhost:8080/CalculatorApp/CalculatorWSService. It is not able to access it. I have developed C# web services and It has been so easy to access them with a url but java web services don't seem to follow that.
My question is
What url to use to access the web service operations in AJAX? (Do I need to use '?wsdl' in the url?
Is there a javascript ajax library to easily access JAX-WS web services?
Apache Axis web services are a better choice over JAX-WS?
Please help me, Thanks, Jay
I was having the same problem of yours, couldn't invoke a Jax-ws web service from Javascript, but i've found a way to do this.
The Url to use can be your same (EndPointAddress) "http://localhost:8080/CalculatorApp/CalculatorWSService"
but when you create the XMLHttpRequest object from javascript you have to:
* Use the POST method to open the URL , i tried with GET but it didn't work for me.
* Set the SOAPAction Request Header to the one in your wsdl, even if its empty "".
* Be very careful with the request body to send, the soap Envelope must be correct.
hope this can help you!.
Bye.

From the client's perspective, I wasn't expecting significant differences between Axis and JAX-WS. Everything the client needs should be in the WSDL.
One thing that sometimes happens is that the URL used when developing a WebService references the develpoment host and port (and maybe even the ContextRoot) When deployed to a particular server any of those could be changed. Ideally a new WSDL could be created with new "binding" information.
My first step would be to point a browser directly at the Web Service you want to invoke. In my environments that returns a nice "Hi this is a Web Service" kind of message. If you get 401 not found errors then you just need to study exactly how the web service was deployed. Was a different port or context root specified?
