SocketTimeoutException in SOAP UI

Hi,

we are facing SocketTimeoutException in SOAP UI

do we need to take any precautions for doing load tests for range of 50000 or more?

I'm attaching the screen shot of the test steps we are using in Load Test

PFA

This is error we got,


at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

    Hello,

    Error you are getting ( java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out ) means that your server did not responded in defined time interval after request have been sent. This could be indication that something is not working properly on server you are hitting.
    You can set your own in global preferences -> http settings tab.

    Issues I'm facing
    ----------------

    1.explain me clearly how to configure and set time intervals to over come the Socket Time out Errors

    2.How can we stop executing the tests once one of the test is failed
    can you explain me how stop the tests automatically once the tests starts failing?

    ( Its waste of time to continue the tests further)

    3.I'm running the Load Tests from command line,
    I'm passing these parameters

    C:\Program Files\eviware\soapUI-Pro-4.0.0\bin\loadtestrunner.bat -ehttp://173.251.31.170 -sTestProject -cMultipleRequest2 -l"LoadTest 1" -m20000 -n50 -r -f"C:\Users\randell\Desktop\Soapuitest" -o -R"LoadTest Report" -F PDF C:\Users\randell\Documents\devproject-soapui-project.xml

    Is this right way?


    correct me if I'm wrong


    Thanks,
    Krish

    Hi Krish,

    I'm guessing you need to improve the performance of either your server or your network - the error indicates that these can not handle the load sent by the loadtest.

    regards!

    Hi Krish,

    yes, this look correct to me - do you get the same errors if you decrease the thread-limit override?

    regards!

      Change test case settings from settings viewer of test case.

       

      Please find screenshot as attached.

       

      Hope this is what you are looking for.

       

      Regards

    Hi Krish,

    Try adding TestStep Status Assertions to your LoadTest for the steps that timeout - set the limits so that it fails the LoadTest.

    Hope this helps!
