Best tools to test web app

What are the best tools for OS X Mavericks to test a PHP, HTML, JavaScript web app? I'm thinking of testing it under different browsers; searching for bugs etc.
Do you know any good applications that help me in this part of web development?

Testing web apps in Safari 3 and 4

How does Apple expect web application developers to test their web apps in both Safari 3 and 4? Or are we just to forget that Safari 3 exists anymore?
Do I need to have two macs for this? Seems excessive.

You could make a bootable clone with Safari 3 using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. Then install Safari 4 on your internal drive.

Need best-practice for Kodo web apps

Please forgive this question from a JDO newbie if it is already answered
elsewhere (if so please let me know, I can't find it)...
We are building an enterprise application consisting of multiple
cooperating web-apps, one servlet per web app. Following the classic MVC
pattern (using Struts) we have the servlets operating as controllers that
concurrently field requests from multiple users. In response to each
concurrent request the servlets instantiate the corresponding command
instances to process the requests. The command objects then interact with
a common shared model implemented as a collection of persistent "model"
objects and business rules. Finally, the commands then create java beans
that are sent to JSPs for display to the users.
No problem thus far - we have successfully used Kodo to implement the
architecture described above. To date we have used a single persistance
manager (PM) that is global to the servlets, existing as long as the
application is running. Although this works, I believe that it won't
scale for concurrent access by multiple users (correct me if I am wrong)
since a PM has one and only one database connection. Our concern however
is regarding persistance managers verses multiple user concurrent access
to the common model (i.e., one user can update information which is then
displayed to all other users).
I believe the answer is in using multiple PMs, but how should the PMs be
allocated? One per user stored in the user's session? If so, how do
multiple users share access to the same model instances? My mental model
is that a PM is like a "sandbox" - objects in one sandbox cannot see
objects existing in another PM's "sandbox". Is that true?
I know this is a long winded question. I was hoping to provide enough
context so someone could suggest a PM utilization that scales well for
applications like ours.
Any help/suggestions is GREATLY appreciated!

What's the best way for a web app to handle logins and sessions?

I'm deploying in JBoss, using JSF. As is often the case, I keep User information in an entity bean. My question is, what's the best way to handle this bean?
My inclination is to create a login page with a LoginBackingBean atached to it. When the user attempts to log in, it will see if there is a User entity bean that corresponds to the given name and password. If there is no User bean that matches, obviously we show an informative error screen.
But what happens if there is a valid user?
In the plain old Servlet world (without EJB / J2EE) I would just put the User object (it's an object, not an EJB) into the HttpSession, and I would create a Filter that would check for the presence of that User object, and I would map the filter to something like /members/*, and that would be it. I would use Hibernate to persist the User object, and there would also be a filter that creates a Hibernate session and stores it in the Request so that the User object would work and persist.
How do I do this within the J2EE / EJB world?
My first thought would be to just do the same thing. Install the User bean into the HttpSession, and create a filter and do all the same stuff. Is that the right way to do it? It would work pretty well with JSF because I could just access things in the normal JSF way: #{user.firstName} would find the "user" object in the HttpSession scope. So that's good.
One question that comes up from that is if the user makes some change to the User object that is in the Session scope, will the EJB automatically do the right thing and make those changes persistent? Is there anything else I need to do?
I'm new to the EJB world, but from what I can see so far, it seems like it's the best way to think about a web application.
Thanks

hi ,
i think the best way is to create java beans ,in that bean call your EJB ,
and check the validation over there.
and make that bean scope to session.
in each and everypage try to check the session ,if it is not valid then forward to your login page...
otherwise continue to give access to him like guest

Please help me to decide the best deign for my web app

I'm quite new to j2EE developement.
Currently im working on a web based user management application ( a small scale one ).
For that im hoping to use JSP s for presentaion tier and EJBs for business logic. This business logic seems to be having more on database accessing. Im not using Entity Beans for data access , but hope to use Session Beans.
Is it ok if i develop according to this model , or is it better to use Entity Beans for data acccess ?
Is it a bad design to use Session Beans for data accessing ?
Or else , what if i avoid EJB s completely and database access is done via JSP itself ?
Or i have another option , that is , using JSP for the presentation layer and Servlets for database accessing.
what is the preferred way ? How i can decide a better way ?
I very much appreciate your kind support on this.
Thanks and Regards

What are the best tools to test why Mac Pro is so slow?

Hi,
I have a 2 x 2.4 GHz quad core intel xeon with 6 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 RAM. 2 x 1 TB Western Digital disks (WDC WD1001FALS-41Y6A1 (boot disk- 50% disk free) and WDC WD1002FAEX-00Y9A0).
I am often surprised at how slow the machine works. Especially when coming out of sleep mode, where the machine could take minutes just to show the login prompt.
Yes, I do keep more than a few processes running all the time, but am I expecting too much? After all it's got some reasonable horsepower. When I check task manager its usually the Chrome renderers that are hogging up a core (or two) but there are still many cores left (at least according to istat menus).
Anyway, I'm wondering what are the right tools to diagnosing the situation and how to improve it.
I've started off with disk utility and everything seems fine.
Can someone please recommend my next steps?   Are there any freeware utilities?
thanks

Tool to test Webservices using SwA (Soap with Attachements)

Hi All,
I generally use the took xmlspy to test any webservice.
But now i am working with a webservice that is using SOAP with Attachemtns.
it seems we cannot use xmlspy to test/invoke webservices that use soap with attachements.
is there any tool by which we can send/receive soap message along with attachements to and from webservices.

Hi,
Have you tried SoapUI?
The standard (free) version & SoapUI Pro both support soap with attachments. Try it out & see if it works for you. SoapUI is proving to be one of the best tools for testing web services.

Best tool to analyze SSAS OLAP performance?

I have SQL Server 2014 SSAS OLAP CUBE and Power View SharePoint 2013. Response time is slow in report.
What is best tool to test performance and analyze reasons why Cube is slow?
Kenny_I

Hi Kenny_l,
According to your description, you want to monitor the SSAS performance. Right?
In Analysis Services, we can monitor the performance of Analysis Services by using SQL Server Profiler or Performance Monitor. In SQL Server Profiler, we can create and manage traces and analyze and replay trace results. In Performance Monitor,
you can monitor the performance of a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance by using performance counters. Please refer to links below:
Use SQL Server Profiler to Monitor Analysis Services
Performance Counters (SSAS)
Also we have a lot of load test tool for SSAS, please refer to the link below:

Moving FlexBuilder 4 web app in a new server (hosting provider)

I am trying to install a test web app (very simple) which reads data from Mysql (using PHP) and populate a datagrid. It works in my computer, but when I moved it to the new server no data is populated and no error poped up (I have done the changes in the amf.config.ini and the Zend files are well installed). I had installed successfully another small app (FB4) in the same server, but the problem with this one is that has a superclass for the data service and I don't know how to change the connections parameters (user id, password, database and server) since I don't know where are them. Am I missing any step or is something I have to do in source before the app is compiled. Highly appreciate any help.
Thanks

Hello EZ;
Is the problem that you are having with the new app this ...
the problem with this one is that has a superclass for the data service and I don't know how to change the connections parameters (user id, password, database and server) since I don't know where are them.
If so, these parameters are in your php class (like you had in your other post in CoursesServices.php) not in FlashBuilder.

Office Web Apps - Best Practice for App Pool Security Account?

Guys,
I am finalising my testing of Office Web Apps, and ready to move onto deploying it to my live farm.
Generally speaking, I put service applications in their own application pool.
Obviously by doing so this has an overhead on memory and processing, however generally speaking it is best practice from a security perspective when using separate accounts.
I have to create 3 new service applications in order to deploy Office Web Apps, in my test environment these are using the Default SharePoint app pool.
Should I create one application pool for all my office web apps with a fresh service account, or does it make no odds from a security perspective to run them in the default app pool?
Cheers,
Conrad
Conrad Goodman MCITP SA / MCTS: WSS3.0 + MOSS2007

i run my OWA under it's own service account (spOWA) and use only one app pool. Just remember that if you go this route, "When
you create a new application pool, you can specify a security account used by the application pool to be either a predefined Network Service account or a managed account. The account must have db_datareader, db_datawriter, and execute permissions for the content
databases and the SharePoint configuration database, and be assigned to the db_owner role for the content databases." (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx)

The test encountered an error while signing in to Outlook Web App. HTTP code: 200

Infrastructure: Exchange 2010 SP3 RU2 environment on 17 servers worldwide with CAS, MB, HUB and UM roles. Server 2008 R2 VM's on Hyper-V 2008 R2.
Trying to run the following command to test OWA connectivity on a server in the same Active Directory domain but in a different AD site:
Get-ClientAccessServer -Identity Server1 | test-owaconnectivity -AllowUnsecureAccess -TrustAnySSLCertificate
I get the reponse:
WARNING: [11:04:51.276] : An Outlook Web App page wasn't received.

The test encountered an error while signing in to Outlook Web App. HTTP code: 200
This is the same error message received from SCOM on its tests also.
I have created a test account on all 17 servers using ./new-TestCasConnectivityUser and ensured their mailboxes reside on the correct server in the correct database.
All internal servers are set for OWA and ECP for Windows Authentication. Only public facing CAS servers are set to Forms based. That said, have checked the 'Microsoft Exchange Forms-Based Authentication service' is running on both Server1 and Server2 as
are all Exchange services except 'Microsoft Exchange IMAP4' (not used) or 'Microsoft Exchange POP3' (not used).
However, if I run this command:
test-owaconnectivity -AllowUnsecureAccess -TrustAnySSLCertificate -URL
https://server1.domain.com/owa
I get the following success after I have entered my correct credentials:
Windows PowerShell Credential Request : cmdlet Test-OwaConnectivity at command pipeline position 1

So if I login with my domain username, it works and logs in. If the script runs using the 'extest....' user account created by the above ./new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 , it does not work.
Has anyone got any ideas please? I know its not the network as it works under my username, I know all fo the services required are running as it works under my username. There are no entries at all in the receiving server's error logs for Application, System,
Exchange or Powershell at all.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Office Web Apps Integration in a Test Environment

I am trying to test Office Web Apps in an Exchange 2013 test environment and therefore have setup my farm for HTTP only. I have set the WAC Discovery End Point on the Exchange server and I can browse to the XML successfully however when I preview files
they are still being displayed using Web-Ready Document Viewer. I have checked the Event Log and found event ids 140 and 141.
Event 141 lists the following error - There was a failure connecting to or otherwise retrieving Data from the Wac Discovery Service. We will fall back to stellent. Successfully retrieved configuration data from http://server01/hosting/discovery, but
retrieved discovery xml does not contain an external https net zone node.
Do I need to configure HTTPS with a certificate in order to get this working in a test environment or should it work with HTTP?
Thanks

Hi Luke,
Based on my research, I found some people solved this issue via resarting MBX server and CAS server on Exchange 2013 server.

Web Apps for iPhone Testing Anyone?

Howdy,
I got my post removed because it was was regarded "advertisement". My company developed an iPhone Chat service and have noticed that Apple does not have any developer forums. Perhaps one of yous can direct us in the right direction. We would like iPhone users to test our iPhone web app, but do not want to "advertise" any further.
Thanks,
