JMeter for Appian

Overview

Using this plug-in JMeter provides an easy way record and replay Appian processes.

JMeter for Appian accomplishes this by hooking into JMeter's Test Script Recorder mechanism. It alters the behavior of most HTTP requests so that additional logic runs when the test is recorded. This logic extracts the standard dynamic values that are passed back and forth when a user interacts with Appian.

Key Features & Functionality

This JMeter plug-in will add post processing to Appian requests/responses to:

Automatically handle headers for authentication
Automatically handle parameterization of context, _cIds and saveIntos in SAIL requests/responses
Automatically handle parameterization of taskIds for chained tasks
Automatically handle parameterization of docIds for uploads
Automatically handle parameterization of cacheKeys/parameters

The plug-in does not attempt to parameterize end user entered data. This could however be added to the generated test script.

Most likely you need to:

(1) in jmeter.properties, set
CookieManager.save.cookies=true

(2) in the login POST to suite/auth, populate X-APPIAN-CSRF-TOKEN with ${COOKIE___appianCsrfToken}.
