JMeter workshop
- 4. JMeter Introduction
JMeter is java-based open source tool designed to load test
functional behavior of client/server software(such as web
application) and analyze overall performance under different load
types.
It may be used to test performance both on static and dynamic
resources(Files, Web- Http/Https, Java Objects, Databases and
more).
- 9. Setup
Download the binary from Jakarta
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/
It’s platform independent, so the same download will run on
Windows, Linux, Mac.
On Windows run jmeter.bat and on Linux run ./jmeter.sh
If unable to open jmeter check JAVA_HOME environment variable
is set.
Editor's Notes
- The Goal of Performance Testing is not to find Bug, but to To Find and Eliminate Performance BottlenecksTo Establish a baseline for Server PerformanceHow much load Application/Server can takeImpact of new features on overall performance
