<p>In this section, you will learn how to create a
<a href="build-test-plan.html">Test Plan</a> to test a WebService. You will
create five users that send requests to One page.
Also, you will tell the users to run their tests twice. So, the total number of
requests is (5 users) x (1 requests) x (repeat 2 times) = 10 HTTP requests. To
construct the Test Plan, you will use the following elements:
<a href="test_plan.html#thread_group">Thread Group</a>,
<a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Request">HTTP Request</a>, and
<a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#Aggregate_Graph">Aggregate Graph</a>.</p><p>If the sampler appears to be getting an error from the webservice, double check the
SOAP message and make sure the format is correct. In particular, make sure the
<tt class="code">xmlns</tt> attributes are exactly the same as the WSDL. If the xml namespace is
different, the webservice will likely return an error.</p></blockquote>

<p>In our Test Plan, we will use a .NET webservice. We won't go into the details of writing a
webservice. If you don't know how to write a webservice, google for
webservice and familiarize yourself with writing webservices for
Java and .NET. It should be noted there is a significant difference
between how .NET and Java implement webservices. The topic is too
broad to cover in the user manual. Please refer to other sources to
get a better idea of the differences.</p><p>

</ol>
</p><p>Next, select "<tt class="code">HTTP Header Manager</tt>" and update "<tt class="code">SOAPAction</tt>" header to match your webservice.
Some webservices may not use SOAPAction in this case remove it.<br>
Currently, only .NET uses SOAPAction, so it is normal to have a blank SOAPAction for all other webservices. The list includes JWSDP, Weblogic, Axis, The Mind Electric Glue, and gSoap.

field, enter JMeter Users.</p><p>Next, increase the number of users (called threads) to 10.</p><p>In the next field, the Ramp-Up Period, leave the default value of 0
seconds. This property tells JMeter how long to delay between starting each
user. For example, if you enter a Ramp-Up Period of 5 seconds, JMeter will
finish starting all of your users by the end of the 5 seconds. So, if we have
5 users and a 5 second Ramp-Up Period, then the delay between starting users
would be 1 second (5 users / 5 seconds = 1 user per second). If you set the
value to 0, then JMeter will immediately start all of your users.</p><p>Finally, clear the checkbox labeled "<tt class="code">Forever</tt>", and enter a value of <tt class="code">2</tt> in
the Loop Count field. This property tells JMeter how many times to repeat your
test. If you enter a loop count value of <tt class="code">0</tt>, then JMeter will run your test only
once. To have JMeter repeatedly run your Test Plan, select the <tt class="code">Forever</tt>
checkbox.</p><p>
