As always, I'm reviewing a book from the rising publisher "Packt Publishing".
First thing I thought when holding the book is : "Wow, it's slim" :)
I previously worked with JMeter in 2003 and I appreciated the power of that excellent tool. I also used OpenSTA which is different.
I didn't work enough time with it to be able to compare them.
Yet, just on a feeling level, I was more convinced by JMeter.
Thus, it's with excitement that I read the first pages.
The first chapters were all about the basics : very useful for beginners or people who don't know what JMeter looks like.
It's really a must-read if you're new to JMeter. Else, it's a good refresh about the way you design and configure your test plans, etc.
It provides the useful information to know and I especially appreciated the last chapter (advanced configuration) in which you learn about FTP among other functionalities.
Recommended for everyone who need to rapidly understand and use this tremendous tool.
