Small restful service that adds 42 to a specified number
This project uses sbt to build an artefact which can then be run from the command line. sbt targets:
clean assembly
Once the assembly plugin has created the runnable jar execute the app using the following:
java -Xmx512m -Xms512m -jar http-adder-service.jar bindHost={host} bindPort={port}
The bindHost and bindPort parameters are optional. If not supplied then these will default to localhost and 8080 respectively.
To test the service, open a browser and attempt to retrieve the following url:
http://{host}:{port}/add42/123
The response body should be 165
Included is a JMeter test under src/main/jmeter that you can use to load test the application. There are variables which, if you're not using the default host and port, need to be set before running the test. Also in order to view the TPS and response time graphs you will need to add the plugins from:
http://code.google.com/p/jmeter-plugins/
The test spawns 50 threads and each thread sends random numbers to the service
