I would like to do a stress test our website with 10000 threads/users. I'm using JMeter for Stress testing the website. But, I don't know the proper way to start the test.
Initially, I have run the test with 5000 users with no ramp-up period, when I run the test, I'm getting the below error:
Response code: Non HTTP response code: java.net.SocketException
But If I put the ramp-up period while running the test, the error does not appear.
At this point, I want to know whether I have to give a ramp-up period or not while running the test.
I have read many posts about the ramp-up period, but not getting the satisfied answer.
Could anyone please help me to do a proper stress test in JMeter?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks
