I have been asked to check how to load test a flex application.

I’ve though about using Selenium, since it’s precisely its job. I’ve also found that testing Flex with Selenium requires extensions to Selenium. I’ve seen that there some of these :

First, it seems that both requires me to rebuild my Flex application to test it. is it true ? Isn’t there any way to automatically add handles ?
Second, when doing so, will I be able to do all kind of tests ? Load tests ? Performance tests ? All these in a continous way ?
Thanks

    Yes there is one another way, but that is too complex to care or to implement. It’s called OCR or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_character_recognition

    Also you could use image recognition.

    Alas, of course you can’t automate a flash or a flex you need to rebuild it to use ExternalInterfaces to make some methods publicly available. That is how it is. The flash is one big chunk of an object there are no tiny parts that you could catch with anything else.

    So you have these options only, nothing else i’m afraid.
