Testing XMPP Chat Server with JMeter

问题

I'm looking to do some performance and load testing on a XMPP/HTTP Web services server using JMeter. I'm new to JMeter and am starting to get my head around the basics, but I would like to get these tests up and running ASAP so am reaching out for some help.

I was able to find a sample JMeter Test Plan which I was hopeful I could adapt and get up and running in no time, however that didn't really pan out, using Wireshark, messages from the client are sent using TCP. I tried using this yandex plugin, but It is throwing errors when I try to use it.

This is the error I get.

I would like to be able to send chat messages, presence updates and composing updates to the server, and ramp up the number of users. this is the basic set of requirements for the tests to be useful to us.

Any help or links to sample test plans would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
