Does anybody know if in Jmeter, using a View Results Tree node, you should see the forms authentication session cookie on the request tab? Currently all i see is "ASP.NET_SessionId=wha...", and despite logging in to the site I dont see any other cookie data.
I’m having problems (link) where Membership.GetUser() is returning null when load testing in Jmeter, and just noticed that the authentication ticket isn’t present in the cookie data. If I use a web browser to log in I can see the forms authentication ticket using Firebug.
Could this be what’s causing Membership.GetUser() to return null?
Tree View does not show the cookie value (I’m looking for a source right now and will update when found).
To see the cookie, you can add a DEBUG sampler, and then view the cookie information in View Results Tree.
Not having a set cookie is probably causing the null value.
