JMeter

JMeter Controllers Controllers determine how requests are sent and managed during test execution. They are categorized into: Sampler Controllers Logic Controllers Sampler Controllers Sampler Controllers tell JMeter to send requests to a server and wait for a response and they are processed in the order they appear in the tree. Each Sampler produces sample results […]

JMeter Test Plan A JMeter Test Plan is the foundation of performance testing using Apache JMeter. It serves as a container for various test objects and defines the execution flow of load tests. A test plan consists of multiple elements that allow testers to simulate user interactions, measure server performance, and analyze test results effectively. […]

JMeter Processors Processors modify request data before it is sent to the server or process server responses after they are received. JMeter element Processor are used to process something (request, custom operations, response) before and after the sampler (request). It basically affect the response time for the request. There are two types of processors in JMeter […]

JMeter Configuration Elements Configuration elements define reusable settings and parameters for samplers. Configuration element works closely with a Sampler. Configuration elements has highest priority during execution for example if we set HTTP Request default and HTTP Request inside the Thread Group during execution the topmost priority is given to HTTP Request Default then only to HTTP […]

Disadvantages of JMeter While JMeter is a powerful performance testing tool, it has some limitations. Below are the key disadvantages of using JMeter. Missing User Perspective JMeter is NOT a browser and works at the protocol level. This makes it difficult when trying to run performance tests from the user’s perspective. For example, JMeter does […]

Duration Assertion in JMeter The Duration Assertion in Apache JMeter tests whether each response is received within a specified time limit. If a response takes longer than the defined time (in milliseconds), it is marked as a failed response. Example: Setting Up Duration Assertion Create a Thread Group Right-click Test Plan → Add → Threads […]
