Run performance tests based on JMeter
Provide a complete JMeter performance testing solution by creating the run-jmeter.sh script from the exact template, making it executable, and configuring the project structure for load testing. Supports custom loops, threads, ramp-up, and environment variable overrides.
What is covered in this Skill?
- Create run-jmeter.sh in project root from the exact template (no modifications)
- Project structure: src/test/resources/jmeter/load-test.jmx, target/ for results
- Script options: -l (loops), -t (threads), -r (ramp-up), -g (GUI), -h (help)
- Environment variables: JMETER_LOOPS, JMETER_THREADS, JMETER_RAMP_UP
- Verify JMeter is installed and available before proceeding
Scope: Copy the script template verbatim. Do not modify, interpret, or enhance the template content.
Constraints
JMeter must be installed and available in PATH. If not available, show a message and exit. Use only the exact template for the run-jmeter.sh script.
- PREREQUISITE: Verify JMeter is installed and accessible via before creating the script
- CRITICAL: Copy the run-jmeter.sh template exactly — do not modify, interpret, or enhance
- PERMISSION: Make the script executable with
- BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for the exact script template and usage instructions
