Group Chat Load Testing for SIP

[Gaurav Kushawaha]

Hi,

 

We were looking after a tool to test Group Chat(3 or more Users in a single session) for SIP Protocol.

As mentioned in the Tutorial for Version 5, we can initiate “Multiple dialogs in scenario” but it handles the same between two users only and that too sequentially with a clear boundary between two.

 

It is possible to have session created between 3 User’s?

[SIP Inspector]

Hi Gaurav!

I would need more information on what exactly will be role of SIP Inspector in your testing.

If it has to simulate clients sending SIP messages to the server you have possibly few ways to do so.

1) The most clear and easy to accomplish is to run 3 instances of SIP Inspector on the same machine and then blast the server with SIP messages.

2) You could also explore how to do it from within the same SIP Inspector instance. 

At the moment without understanding exact SIP message flow I could not provide more information or be more specific. What could help is a Wireshark trace of message sequence you are trying to achieve with SIP inspector.

Regards,
