Description
Apache Tomcat supports the AJP protocol for communication between reverse proxies (httpd, IIS, etc) and Tomcat. It would be useful for various purposes (bug investigation, testing, load testing, etc.) to have an wget/curl/ab etc. equivalent for AJP.
A good starting point exists in the Apache JMeter project. This task is to produce (probably but not necessarily starting from the JMeter code):
- A Java library that provides AJP client functionality
- integrate that client with JMeter
- provide a command line wrapper for that client library
and then use the library to (stress) test Tomcat's AJP implementations, identify bugs and provide patches for those bugs.
