class ssetest extends Simulation {

  val httpProtocol = http.baseUrl("https://localhost:8443")
    .acceptHeader(
      "*/*"
    ) 
    .enableHttp2
    .http2PriorKnowledge(Map("localhost:8443" -> true))

  val scn = scenario("ServerSentEvents")
      .exec(
        sse("GET messages")
          .connect("/notification/events")
          .header("MemberId", session => String.valueOf(session.userId))
          .await(1)(
            sse.checkMessage("ConnectionCheck").matching(substring("connection established"))
              .check(bodyString.saveAs("InitialMessage"))
          )
      )
        .exec(
          sse("SetCheck").setCheck
            .await(20)(
              sse.checkMessage("checkMessage")
                .matching(substring("event"))
                .check(bodyString.saveAs("BODY"))
            )
        )
        .pause(30)
        .exec(sse("Close").close)


  setUp(scn.inject(rampUsers(1).during(1))).protocols(httpProtocol)

}

I am using the above code to open up SSE connections locally.

Problem Statement: HTTP/2 is not working. It always falls back to HTTP/1.1

On the other hand, if I use http.get(url) instead of sse.connect(url), it is able to establish HTTP/2 connection.

Anything I am missing here?

Indeed, Gatling’s SSE support doesn’t support HTTP/2 atm, only HTTP/1.1.

Is this something that’s critical for your organization and that you’d be willing to contribute or sponsor?
