Adding headers, cookies, and payload for various HTTP methods in Grinder, a Java Load Testing Framework, is unfortunately, is not intuitively clear. So the following sample should make life much easier: we specify custom header, cookies, and payload for the mentioned HTTP methods.

I love the valuable info you supply in your posts. I like your writing style.
I just signed up to your blogs rss feed. Will you post more on this subject?
I think other web site proprietors should take this site as an model, very clean and great user friendly style and design, as well as the content. You’re an expert at this stuff!
I’ll discover why the correspondence course on “Mail Fraud” that I bought never showed up.
I think I’ve read about this somewhere . Did you source this from somewhere else?
Not really, that is mostly the collection of the results of my own experiments.
Hurrah, that’s what I was searching for, what a material!
existing here at this weblog, thanks admin of this site.
