Maven Central Reproducible Builds

Simple Java API to run performance tests, using JMeter as engine, in a Git and programmers friendly way.

If you like this project, please give it a star :star:! This helps the project be more visible, gain relevance, and encourage us to invest more effort in new features.

Here you can find the .Net DSL.

Usage

If you use maven, just include the following dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>us.abstracta.jmeter</groupId>
  <artifactId>jmeter-java-dsl</artifactId>
  <version>1.29.1</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Here is a simple example test in JUnit 5+ with 2 threads/users iterating 10 times each to send HTTP POST requests with a JSON body to http://my.service:

import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat;
import static us.abstracta.jmeter.javadsl.JmeterDsl.*;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.time.Duration;
import java.time.Instant;
import org.apache.http.entity.ContentType;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import us.abstracta.jmeter.javadsl.core.TestPlanStats;

public class PerformanceTest {

  @Test
  public void testPerformance() throws IOException {
    TestPlanStats stats = testPlan(
      threadGroup(2, 10,
        httpSampler("http://my.service")
          .post("{\"name\": \"test\"}", ContentType.APPLICATION_JSON)
      ),
      //this is just to log details of each request stats
      jtlWriter("target/jtls")
    ).run();
    assertThat(stats.overall().sampleTimePercentile99()).isLessThan(Duration.ofSeconds(5));
  }

}

This example also uses AssertJ for assertions, but you can use whatever assertion library you choose.

You can use this project as a starting point.

Tip 1: Check the DSL recorder and jmx2dsl to ease test plan creation or migration from existing JMX files.

Tip 2: Since JMeter uses log4j2, if you want to control the logging level or output, you can use something similar to the tests included log4j2.xml.

Tip 3: When working with multiple samplers in a test plan, specify their names to easily check their respective statistics.

Check here for details on some interesting use cases, like running tests at scale in BlazeMeter or OctoPerf, saving and loading test plans from JMX, publishing test metrics to InfluxDB (and visualizing them from Grafana), and general usage guides.

Contributing & Requesting features

Currently, the project covers the most used features required when implementing JMeter performance tests, but not everything the JMeter supports/provides.

We invest in the development of DSL according to the community's (your) interest, which we evaluate by reviewing GitHub stars' evolution, feature requests, and contributions.

To keep improving the DSL we need you to please create an issue for any particular feature or need that you have.

We also really appreciate pull requests. Check the CONTRIBUTING guide for an explanation of the main library components and how you can extend the library.
