Long Polling in Gatling

Warning: Please bear with me and I am fairly new with Gatling. So, apologies in advance. :P :)



I was going through the Loadrunner Asynchronous Calls Function - wb_reg_async_attributes, and I found that there are four different Asynchronous Conversation Patterns, which are:




  1. Poll - The client polls the server periodically for information.


  2. Long Poll - The client polls the server and waits for a response.
    When the response arrives, another poll request is initiated.


  3. Push -The client sends a request. The server response is to send updates
    when there are changes to the requested information.

  4. Cross-user - One user performs an activity that is reflected in another user's client. For example, user1 sends an email and user2 receives
    notification.


Now, I have a requirement where I need to test Long-Polling using Gatling.
As far as I know, there are two ways in Gatling:




  1. Poll

  2. SSE


Please feel free to let me know in case I am wrong.
By using Polling function of Gatling, I am getting a Gateway Timeout Error. My theory is:



Gatling sends the request --> doesn't get a response --> Comes back with Gateway Timeout error.



Is there a way I can emulate Long Polling in Gatling? Please help me out in resolving this challenge.
