This is a Maven 2 plugin that allows you to run JMeter tests as part of the build. I am using this with [http://jchav.blogspot.com/ JChav] and [http://maven.apache.org/continuum/ Continuum] to automate the running of a suite of JMeter load tests, and publish the results to a web page. Sorry this is not more polished. It could use some TLC to make it more user-friendly to actually plug it into a project. I just thought I'd stick the code out there as quickly as possible and see if anyone is interested in it before I went any further with it.
To build and use the plugin:
- Create a local Maven repository, if you don't already have one.
Drop in the attached [^jmeter-2.2.jar JMeter jar] and [^jmeter-2.2.pom POM]. You do not need to have JMeter separately installed.
- Add the jar files that are referenced in the JMeter POM to your local repository, if they are not on ibiblio.
Download the attached [^maven-jmeter-plugin-src.tar.gz Maven JMeter Plugin source tarball]. Untar it.
- Run "mvn install" to build and install the plugin.
- In your project's pom.xml, add a dependency on this plugin:
<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.jmeter</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jmeter-plugin</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <type>plugin</type> </dependency>
- Create a src/test/jmeter directory, and place your JMeter load tests there.
- Create a jmeter.properties file in src/test/jmeter. It's fine to just copy the default properties file from the JMeter install if you want.
- Optionally configure includes and excludes in your pom.xml for which tests to run. If you don't, it will just run **/*.jmx. For example:
<build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.jmeter</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jmeter-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <includes> <include>myTest1.jmx</include> <include>myTest2jmx</include> </includes> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build>
- Run "mvn org.apache.jmeter:maven-jmeter-plugin:jmeter" to run the tests.
