Hi, I want to get into test automation, and the two tools I found during my first web search are Selenium and Jmeter.
Which one do you think is the first to have a look at? Or do I need both tools as they’re totally different?
What I would need is the possibility to do Clientside-Certificate-Authentication, filling forms with different Information, and checking result pages.
Apache JMeter is definitely tool for performance testing and load/stress tests. But you can use it also for functional tests as well (in your example: fill form ->check results but with checking if results are as expected – but better don’t do functional testing with him)
For functional testing on the other hand there are Selenium and also Canoo web test.
So final answer will be to combine those two. (I was using JMeter for performance tests and canoo web test for functional testing, but I guess that Selenium is much better choice now)
