title: Using JMeter to test a Flex/Spring web app
body: <p>i have a Flex/Spring web project where the client is a flexapp that runs in the browser and the server components(Spring/Hibernate) runs in tomcat.
  The compile dcluient files also obviously reside in the tomcat server.
  i want to use JMeter to do some performance testing on the application.
  i am new to JMeter and don't know how to connect the JMeter with the application.
  From what i understand i cant use the http request based test cases as i am using flex.
  Any reference will help.</p>
  
  <p>What kind of plugins do i need on the JMeter instance?
  How to configure JMeter to be able to call the application via flex?</p>
