I am doing performance testing of Web Services which involves HMAC authentication. Details are:
A java script has been developed which will create a signature, MD5 code and nonce number before a request is sent from the API
This information generated above will be passed on to variables defined in the script which will authenticate before making a request.
Once authentication is successful the request will be sent and valid response will be obtained from DB.
script needs to be put in a beanshell preprocessor of Jmeter:
This script will be generating values for the header manager which in turn will do authentication process.
The problem is the language in which the script has been written ( JS ) is not compatible with Jmeter i.e jmeter cannot use the script created because it does not understands the language of the script. I came to know that the script has to be modified probably using jquery so that the jmeter beanshell can interpret it and generate values for
Date
MD-5
Signature
How can I change it to jQuery or is there any possibility to get similar JQuery code, as I do not have much java script coding background.
